Pittsburgh is the story of a family and a city. Frank Santoro faces a simple but heart-breaking situation : his parents, once high-school sweethearts, no longer speak to each other despite working in the same building. Stuck in the middle, he tries to understand them. Drawn in vivid colours and exuberant lines and set amid the fading neighbourhood streets, the pages of Pittsburgh are filled with details ranging from the humdrum to the dramatic, from his childhood mishaps to his father’s trauma in Vietnam.
