Summary:
"Roger Dahl's Zero Gravity cartoon strip has been a popular feature of
Japan
's leading English-language daily newspaper, The
Japan
Times, since 1991. Now, for the first time, Roger Dahl's
Comic
Japan
brings together the best of Zero Gravity in book form. Offering a Western artist's take on
Japan
, the strip stars Larry and Lily, a young American couple working as English teachers in Tokyo. Larry and Lily never manage to fully integrate into Japanese society, and Zero Gravity takes a whimsical approach to the meeting of cultures as well as the quirky dynamics of changing relationships between generations and subgroups within
Japan
. Besides Larry and Lily, Zero Gravity features their close friends, the Koyama family, whose three very different generations encounter plenty of misunderstandings of their own! This anthology contains eight chapters featuring the best selection of strips from Larry and Lily's life in
Japan
. Each chapter opens with a brief passage about its theme, and a 3-page illustrated introduction provides information about Dahl, his career, and his inspiration for Zero Gravity."--From publisher.
