A primeira biografia gráfica de Edward Snowden, o herói do nosso tempo. O cartunista norte-americano Ted Rall conta a história do ex-técnico da Agência de Segurança dos Estados Unidos (NSA), que revelou ao mundo métodos ilegais de escuta e vigilância de americanos e de cidadãos de todo o mundo.

Snowden é um thriller, também um perfil de coragem e civismo e ainda uma meditação sobre o equilíbrio sutil entre privacidade e segurança que domina a esfera pública na Era da Informação.

Ted Rall is a nationally syndicated political cartoonist, columnist, graphic novelist, editor, author and occasional war correspondent.

Twice the winner of the RFK Journalism Award and a Pulitzer Prize finalist, Rall's important books include "Revenge of the Latchkey Kids," about the travails of Generation X, and "Silk Road to Ruin," a survey of ex-Soviet Central Asia. He traveled to Afghanistan during the fall 2001 U.S. invasion, where he drew and wrote "To Afghanistan and Back," the first book of any kind about the war. He was also one of the first journalists to declare the war effort doomed, writing in The Village Voice in December 2001 that the occupation had already been lost.

Rall's latest book is "The Book of Obama: How We Went From Hope and Change to the Age of Revolt." His next book, "After We Kill You, We Will Welcome You Back As Honored Guests: Unembedded in Afghanistan," comes out in November 2013.

Inspired after meeting pop artist Keith Haring in a Manhattan subway station in 1986, Rall began posting his cartoons on New York City streets. He eventually picked up 12 small clients, including NY Weekly and a poetry review in Halifax, Nova Scotia, through self-syndication. In 1990, he returned to Columbia University to resume his studies, from which he graduated with a bachelor of arts with honors in history in 1991. (His honors thesis was about American plans to occupy France as an enemy power at the end of World War II.) Later that year, Rall's cartoons were signed for national syndication by San Francisco Chronicle Features, which is no longer in business. He moved to Universal Press Syndicate in 1996.

His cartoons now appear in more than 100 publications around the United States, including the Los Angeles Times, Tucson Weekly, the Harrisburg Patriot-News, Pasadena Weekly and MAD Magazine.

Rall considers himself a neo-traditionalist who uses a unique drawing style to revive the aggressive approach of Thomas Nast, who viewed editorial cartoons as a vehicle for change. His focus is on issues important to ordinary working people--he keeps a sign asking "What do actual people care about?" above his drafting table--such as un- and underemployment, the environment and popular culture, but also comments on political and social trends.

5.0 out of 5 stars Um livro muito informativo e que certamente a história deveria ser disponibilizada
Reviewed in Brazil on October 24, 2020

Vou mandar a real... É um livro beeem bad, então não leia se estiver com ansiedade ou algum transtorno similar. Assim, é muita coisa, e como um profissional de TI sei que é tudo muito possível, nos faz lembrar de que não há uma verdadeira segurança na web, mas né, onde estamos 100% seguros? O livro é um tapa e um documento histórico, usado pra expor a NSA e como não existem santos e como os grandes já nos observam há tempos. Se possível, tome todo o cuidado com eletrônicos e sempre troque senhas e tape sua webcam.

Livro ótimo, com conteúdo necessário sem ser pedante, leve por ter ilustração e necessário por falar de privacidade, governo e sistema de vigilância.

4.0 out of 5 stars Uma densa história em quadrinhos
Reviewed in Brazil on February 8, 2016

Um ótimo resumo para quem deseja conhecer a história de um herói do nosso tempo, Edward Snowden. Não é por ser concisa nem por ser narrada na forma de quadrinhos que a obra deixa de ser profunda, politizada e provocativa. O livro é candidato, desde já, a clássico contemporâneo.
