Julio's day / by Gilbert Hernandez ; [introduction by Brian Evenson].
A graphic novel that begins in the year 1900, with the scream of a newborn, and ends, 100 pages later, in the year 2000, with the death rattle of a 100-year-old man. The infant and the old man are both Julio, in a story in which elliptical, emotional narrative traces one life--indeed, one century in a human life--through a series of vignettes touching on most of the major events that shaped the 20th century.
