Product Description

Review

"I found myself laughing out loud at the comedy and then going ooh-ah at the detailed and often-stunning drawings."


Synopsis

Mr Abeels runs a flower shop that is about to enter the age of modernity. He imagines, through the miracle of plastics, flowers that never fade! His novelty, though, is snatched up by the ambitious city planners of the all-new city of Brusel. No more lack of hygiene! No more dusty old buildings! All is razed and enormous new skyscrapers are erected at blistering speed! Never mind the disruptions and uprootings of people's lives! Who needs to preserve and live in history? While this upheaval is going on, Abell falls in love with a renegade woman who fights the extensive redesigns and ends up having to play both sides very carefully...

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastically subtle and parodic, 21 May 2003
By A Customer
A fantastic and mostly subtle parody of Bruxelles corrupted and parochial gigantic obsession of the 1960s...
