"When I was younger, I lived in an enormous mansion in the heart of the magical forest. I was good looking, rich, intelligent, and had a lot of friends." An ideal childhood? Sure, but in reality, the mansion was a shack in a miserable neighborhood; the forest was filled with fireplaces spewing nauseating fumes, and the child in question wasn't more than a lonely, poor human being. But growing up, things changed: money, love, fatherhood and social status. This is where his failure began.

"When I was younger, I lived in an enormous mansion in the heart of the magical forest. I was good looking, rich, intelligent, and had a lot of friends." An ideal childhood? Sure, but in reality, the mansion was a shack in a miserable neighborhood; the forest was filled with fireplaces spewing nauseating fumes, and the child in question wasn't more than a lonely, poor human being. But growing up, things changed: money, love, fatherhood and social status. This is where his failure began. A comic that questions the true nature of success and failure, this book plays on the constant contradictions between the text and images. As the words idealize childhood, the pictures portray a sordid reality. Upon reaching adulthood, this is reversed and the alleged success is criticized. What is success? What is failure? This story shows that it's not simply black and white. "Cuando era pequeño, vivía en una mansión enorme, en el corazón de un bosque mágico... Era guapo, tenía muchos amigos y era rico e inteligente." ¿Una infancia ideal? Sí, pero la gran mansión en realidad es un cuchitril en un barrio miserable; el bosque mágico, un bosque de chimeneas que vomitan humo nauseabundo... y el niño en cuestión, no es más que un ser desgraciado, solo, pobre y estúpido... Pero al crecer, las cosas cambiaron: los títulos, el dinero, el amor, la paternidad, el éxito social, los eventos sociales, el poder han transformado a nuestro héroe. Y así fracasó en la vida... ¡cuando llegó el éxito! Un cómic que se cuestiona sobre la verdadera naturaleza del éxito y del fracaso. Este libro juega con la contradicción constante entre el texto y la imagen. Mientras las palabras idealizan una infancia triste, las viñetas muestran una realidad sórdida. Pero al llegar la edad adulta, esto se invierte y las palabras critican un supuesto éxito en la vida que las ilustraciones idealizan. Al final, nos encontramos con el protagonista anciano, encorvado con cariño sobre su peluche infantil, como si regresara a la infancia, como si lamentara haber perdido algo esencial... ¿Qué es el éxito? ¿Qué es el fracaso? No es tan sencillo.
