Críticas:

All ages respond to this moving picture book, a moving tribute to displaced people. (The Sunday Times' 100 Best Children's Books) (The Sunday Times)

...a remarkable and skilful work of art. (Nicolette Jones, The Sunday Times)

This book should be 'read' by adults and children alike. It's astonishing. (Marilyn Brocklehurst, Norfolk Children's Book Centre)

With this haunting, wordless sequence about a lonely emigrant in a bewildering city, Tan ... finds in the graphic novel format an ideal outlet for his sublime imagination.... few will remain unaffected by this timeless stunner. (Publishers Weekly)

Filled with both subtlety and grandeur, the book is a unique work that not only fulfills but also expands the potential of its form. (Booklist)

...an unashamed paean to the immigrant's spirit, tenacity and guts, perfectly crafted for maximum effect. (Kirkus Reviews)

Tan's lovingly laid out and masterfully rendered tale about the immigrant experience is a documentary magically told by way of Surrealism. (Art Spiegelman, author of Maus: A Survivor's Tale)

The Arrival is an absolute wonder. It's not often you see art of this quality, or a book that's so brave. (Marjane Satrapi, author of Persepolis and Embroideries)

Shaun Tan delivers a shockingly imaginative graphic novel that captures the sense of adventure and wonder that surrounds a new arrival on the shores of a shining new city... The Arrival is one of the best graphic novels of the year! (Jeff Smith, author of Bone)

Entirely wordless, but brimming with sounds and conversations in foreign tongues, Shaun Tan's book emanates the warmth of faded photographs... (Craig Thompson, author of Blankets)

Reseña del editor:

What drives so many to leave everything behind and journey alone to a mysterious country, a place without family or friends, where everything is nameless and the future is unknown. This silent graphic novel is the story of every migrant, every refugee, every displaced person, and a tribute to all those who have made the journey.
