Whoever you are and wherever you are from, if you love Rotterdam and stories, this is the book for you. METRO 010 is a graphic novel about important events in the past that made the city what it is today; it tells the history of the city in 12 comic strips.
The story begins far in the past, when Rotterdam was just a fishing village, and ends in 2050, with visions of what the future might bring. Rotterdam was not created in a single moment, by a single person, but over the centuries, by many. And now by you.
METRO 010 is an invitation to discover and explore the city.
Again and again, day after day.
In collaboration with 19 illustrators, 4 city poets, 2 photographers and 4 historians: Boy Akkerman, Marvin Bruin, Dodici, Loes van Duijvendijk, Bruno Ferro Xavier da Silva, Stang Gubbels, Vienne Lisa Haagoort, Edwin Hagendoorn, Mariana Hirschfeld, Han van der Horst.
