A Trip into a Young Farmer’s Mind
Chickens that can talk? Cows that can dance? They are all in Louis Black’s comic books(漫画书).
Louis Black was born on a farm. The quiet young man spent most of his life helping his parents on the farm. When he was nine, he started to draw the animals on the farm. Later, he put them into his comic books in his own funny way. They were enjoyed by his family but never shown to people outside the farm.
The shy farmer’s comic books became famous only after he died. He passed on in a fire three years ago, when he was only 35. In order to remember him, his family showed his comic books in the town museum, and people liked them very much. Now the original(原始的) pictures of Louis Black’s farm animals can be seen at the City Art Center for one month.
