Annotation:
Like a hive of energetic bees, multiple pairs of interrelated images race through this crazy, bustling, wordless picture book devoted to the study of opposing vantage-points. Each picture--be it a young girl practicing cello and watching a paper airplane soar outside the window, a penguin biking across a deserted highway, or a chick poking its beak through the page--has a corresponding opposite, or "other side." A combination of sweet, humorous, sad, and slapstick images converge to make up an entertaining roller coaster of mini-experiences. Istvan Banyai's characteristic stylized illustrations consist of B&W graphite/digital imagery.

New York Times Book Review
"Istvan Banyai's new book, THE OTHER SIDE...is visually elegant, devilishly clever and not dependent on words...He clearly loves to draw. He loves also to twist our reality up like a dishrag, then, just when you thought it was smoothed back into shape, to twist it again." - David Small 11/13/2005
