About book Historias Color De La Tierra 1. Los Pequeños Cuentos De Mi Madre (2003)
I liked this book. It addressed issues such as puberty and other aspects of growing up without making it feel like a lecture. I personally felt like I didn't get as much from this book as I probably could have, if I had known more about the Korean culture, but the book does give very helpful notes to give some background context. I liked the portrayal of the characters, though. They seemed very realistic, which gave the story more believability. It was a good book. I still haven't read much manhwa. Something tells me that this isn't typical. It's a slow, reflective coming of age story, surprisingly frank in how it shows a young girl's sexual awakening. This certainly won't be for everyone. The characters are drawn in a very mannered style, the whole thing is quite slow to unfold, and it verges on navel gazing at certain points. That said, it's refreshingly honest, and the backgrounds, especially the flowers, can be breathtaking. I'm not sure if I liked it well enough to finish the trilogy, but I do have a lot of respect for what the artist was trying to accomplish here.
