Highly Spirited
Shaun Tan’s “Tales from the Inner City” Book Releases
Shaun Tan’s latest book, Tales from the Inner City, is a collection of illustrated short stories that are sure to delight Shaun Tan fans of all ages and is a stunning companion to Tales from Outer Suburbia.
World-renowned artist Shaun Tan applies his unique imagination to a reflection on the nature of humans and animals, and our urban coexistence. From crocodile to frog, tiger to bee, this is a dark and surreal exploration of the perennial love and destruction we feel and inflict – of how animals can save us, and how our lives are forever entwined, for better or for worse.
Tales from the Inner City is a masterful work, bearing all of Shaun Tan’s trademark wit and poignancy in both its prose and exquisite illustrations.
