Description
Hayao Miyazaki grew up in the post-apocalyptic atmosphere of Japan after the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It is here that one of the interpretative lines of the book is born, successfully combining the director's biography with an analysis of his films and providing many details about Miyazaki's life, inspirations, and themes, whether they concern strong heroines, environmental nightmares, or visions of utopian societies. Miyazaki's cult films such as My Neighbor Totoro, Princess Mononoke, or Spirited Away opened the West to the art of Japanese animation and continue to influence global pop culture from comics to video games. The book, which many consider to be one of the essential publications introducing readers to the world of anime and manga, offers an answer to why Miyazaki is so influential.
