Since I was a little kid, I believed the streets in a city could move and that an entire block could change places. I didn’t understand then why I had such a strong and strange belief, but I kept it alive because I knew I would figure out what had happened later in my life.

I grew up in a bloody dictatorship, and only by drawing this story did I realize I was terrified as a kid. Having such a creative belief was not allowed. So, I started hiding in plain sight.

This young adult graphic novel memoir is the story of how my imagination and I teamed up to turn me into an artist so I could escape living in the totalitarian, chauvinist, and antisemitic society I was living in and become an international award designer and self-made multi-millionaire.
