Overview of Aya of Yop City Book

[Aya] wittily delves into both the political and the pop during an enchanted era when anything seemed possible. Vibe VixenThe original Drawn & Quarterly volume of Aya debuted last year to much critical acclaim, receiving a Quill Award nomination and praise for its accessibility and for the rare portrait of a warm, vibrant Africa it presents. This continuation of the dynamic story by Marguerite Abouet and Cl ment Oubrerie returns to Africa s Ivory Coast in the late 1970s, where life in Yop City is as dramatic as ever. Oubrerie s artwork synchronizes perfectly with Abouet s funny and lighthearted writing, which together create a spirited atmosphere and scenarios that, however unique to the bygone setting, remain entirely contemporary in their effect. The original cast of characters is back in full force, with a case of questionable paternity fanning the flames of activity in the community. The new mother Adjoua has her friends to help with the baby, perhaps employing Aya a bit too frequently, while a new romance leaves Bintou with little time for her friends, let alone their responsibilities. The young women aren t the only residents of Yopougon involved in the excitement, however; Aya s father is caught in the midst of his own trysts and his employer s declining Solibra beer sales, and Adjoua s brother finds his share of the city s nightlife.
