A BOY ON THE BEACH

(un niño en la playa) | Luciano Lozano| Akiara, Spain | 48pp | 28 x 24 cm

Two boys meet on the beach, by the Strait of Gibraltar. One is the son of a local fisherman. The other is Kai, bright-eyed, curious, and just arrived from a faraway country: Japan. Two cultures meet through their friendship. They share games and ways from Andalusia and Japan, without realizing how this will mark their lives forever. An ode to friendship and diversity, simple and profound, with autobiographical elements, joining the luminosity of the Mediterranean with the delicate balance of Japanese aesthetics.
