Mikael Ross es el autor más relevante del cómic alemán actual, traducido a 8 idiomas y ganador del Premio Max und Moritz.

Ludwig van Beethoven fue un artista hecho a sí mismo, creador de una música que, a día de hoy, sigue conmoviéndonos. Pero quién fue el joven Ludwig, antes de convertirse en Beethoven? Nacido en el seno de una familia humilde de Bonn, el pequeño «Luddi tiene que afrontar desde tierna edad una vida difícil, dirigida con ritmo despótico por un padre alcohólico y endeudado, que quiere sacar partido de su talento en bruto y le exige una y otra vez que deje de componer sus propias piezas, y que toque al piano únicamente lo que se espera de él...

Mikael Ross ha imaginado al joven genio tomando como referencia los diarios reales que escribieron los Fischer, los vecinos de los Beethoven en Bonn, que ofrecen un retrato atípico de la disfuncional familia que habitaba la vivienda de arriba y que sin embargo alumbró a uno de los mayores genios de la Historia. El resultado es una experiencia inmersiva y fascinante, a medio camino entre el drama social y el humor.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A GRAPHIC NOVEL ABOUT BEETHOVEN'S CHILDHOOD AND HIS UNUSUAL FAMILY.

Ludwig van Beethoven created music that moves and inspires us to this day; his very name sparks a melody in the ear. But are you born a genius? This graphic biography asks: "Who was Beethoven before he became 'Beethoven?'

A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection.

Master cartoonist Mikael Ross (The Thud) tells the story of Beethoven from 1778 to his first major public appearance in Vienna in 1795. It begins when the family is living a difficult life in Bonn. Father Johann battles with alcoholism and is deep in debt. Only young Ludwig and his talent at the piano offer any hope for the future ― if only he would stop composing his own pieces and just play what's expected of him.

Author Ross was asked to do a small comic for the Beethoven Society. Through this opportunity, he discovered the diaries of the baker's son that lived downstairs from Beethoven's family, the content of which inspired Golden Boy. As in his previous book, The Thud, Ross skillfully mixes humor with empathy and pure social drama, crafting a coming-of-age story that transcends its biographical subject matter. His colorful, expressive style and mastery of the language of comics are perfectly suited to the tall task of capturing Beethoven's timeless music visually.
