Book : The Arrival

Today I want to share with you about one of my dear inspiration :

Mr. Shaun Tan

The first graphic novel drawn & written by him that  I bought was :

| The Outer Suburbia |

I was a student back then and buying a novel graphic 

was like daily meals for a whole week.

So there I was in Gramedia alone (I went there solely for the book),

and I bought it right away after days of consideration since I first saw the book.

I usually have a thing on items that caught my eyes,

no matter how expensive, I'll work myself out.

Or it will dance in front of my eyes until 

I really own it.

This year, on my birthday, I received 

| The Arrival by Shaun Tan |

from a dear friend of mine. 

I know she worked hard to find the book.

With that, I thank her with all my heart  ♥

Here is some illustration from the book :
