It is a comedy and it is a tragedy. It is comforting and frightening at the same time. And it is called life. It is amazing how much you can tell by drawing a comic book that at the end is not so comic any more.
Ryppyjä (Wrinkles, WSOY 2010) by a Spanish author Paco Roca tells beautifully what growing old can mean in the Western society. It is a book than can perhaps learn us to appreciate those moments with our beloved ones before it is too late, before they disappear to the world where memories are the only reality.
