Overview
El pensamiento vivo de Mafalda, «una heroína de nuestro tiempo» (Umberto Eco)
«La filosofía de Mafalda, ya un clásico, supone la vuelta en tiras esta primavera de la "hija" de Quino. Los bocados mafaldinos son un trago de humor negro pero siempre con un punto soñador que ayuda a refrescar el viaje. [...] Mafalda nos columpia de la carencia al ideal para traernos siempre de vuelta a la realidad. La suya es una filosofía en pequeñas dosis para aprender a aterrizar.» —Ana Abelenda, La Voz de Galicia
Podrían decirse muchas sutilezas del mundo, pero hay que reconocer que a menudo puede parecer un inmenso plato de sopa. ¿Y qué decir de la humanidad que lo habita? Aunque parezca incorregible, tratar de comprenderla y de aportar su granito de arena para mejorarla, como hace una pequeña filósofa como Mafalda, es la tarea a la que nos invita Quino, una y otra vez, a través de sus tiras.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The living thought of Mafalda, "a heroine of our time" (Umberto Eco)
“The Philosophy of Mafalda, already a classic, imagines the return of Quino's ‘daughter’ in comic strips this spring. The Mafaldino bites are a shot of black humor but always with a dreamy touch that helps to refresh the trip. [...] Mafalda swings us from a place of scarcity to the ideal and always brings us back to reality. Her’s is a philosophy given in small doses so we learn how to land. " —Ana Abelenda, The Voice of Galicia
Many subtleties of the world could be said, but it must be admitted that it can often seem like a huge bowl of soup. And what about the humanity that inhabits it? Although it may seem incorrigible, trying to understand it and contribute a grain of sand to improve it, as a little philosopher like Mafalda does, is the task that Quino invites us to, over and over again, through his comic strips.
