Joaquín Sabina: Passion and Life (Vol. 1)

Step into the world of Joaquín Sabina with Pasión y Vida (Vol. 1), an authorised graphic biography that captures the first and most formative chapters of his extraordinary career. With 224 richly illustrated pages, the book traces Sabina’s journey from his upbringing in Úbeda, through his university days in Granada, his self-imposed exile to London, and his return to Spain to forge a unique voice in music and culture. 
Through sweeping visuals and narrative that explores both the public legend and the private man, this volume highlights the creation of La Mandrágora, the making of his landmark albums, and his ascent to myth-status in Latin America. 
Whether you’re a longtime fan of Sabina’s lyric-rich songs or a newcomer curious about the man behind the microphone, this graphic biography offers a compelling and accessible entry. The format combines the emotional power of illustration with biographical depth — covering his social commitment, his legendary nightlife, his collaborations, and how his songs came to life. As Vol. 1, it sets the stage for the rest of his story, offering a vivid portrait of an artist who turned his experiences into poetry, melody and cultural impact.
Ideal for readers of music memoirs, graphic novels, and anyone interested in Spanish-language culture and storytelling, Pasión y Vida (Vol. 1) is both a tribute and a revelation — a visual odyssey of a singular musician and his world.
