“A Journey to Tynemouth” is a manga illustrated with watercolors by the renowned Ghibli anime director Hayao Miyazaki. It complements a series of short stories translated into Japanese by British writer Robert Westall, known for his novels focusing on World War II, particularly aviation and planes of that era, which have strongly influenced Miyazaki’s work.
IThe book also features an essay by Miyazaki reflecting on Westall’s stories and his own wartime experiences. In the manga, Miyazaki (portrayed as his alter-ego pig character) embarks on a whimsical journey to visit Westall (depicted as a terrier) in Tynemouth, the setting for many of Westall’s tales
