Juliette - Les fantômes reviennent au printemps by Camille Juliette - Les fantômes reviennent au printemps by Camille

This slice of life graphic novel is so poignant, what with the plot, the language, the watercolors. It feels truly pastoral, rife with small-town drama and family plots. There family secrets, an aging grandmother, and tense moments between townies and families. The book is entitled Juliette, floating in the centre of the cover in a grassy clearing is a second, possibly alternative name: or, the Ghosts Return in the Spring. depicts a milieu where full-blown depression is seldom more than a frame or two away. Most people look like they’re struggling with their weight; men are disinclined to shave but not quite ambitious enough to grow beards; smoking is seemingly required by law. The place to be, for many, is the local bar. Called Le Tropical, its ambience is as unlike a beach in Tahiti as could be imagined. But it is the neighbourhood nerve centre, practically the only informal gathering place in a setting that otherwise discourages such things. Her parents, long divorced but still driven to torment each other, are intent on finding love, just with other people. While her mother dabbles in painting and younger men, her father is convinced that he is developing dementia. Meanwhile, the family’s aging grandmother doesn’t recognize anyone and has a tendency to chew on the tablecloth at dinner parties.No os la perdáis aunque no sea precisamente barata, aún así, cuando la lees y disfrutas de las ilustraciones se entiende perfectamente porque tiene ese precio. J'ai quand même bien le droit de te payer des études ! T'es partie de la maison tellement tôt que je ne t'ai jamais rien payé du tout. Esta obra narra hechos cotidianos y el agitado movimiento que realmente tiene la vida. A pesar de que a veces consideramos que todo es monotonía y rigidez, realmente siempre estamos metidos en cien mil fregaos. Las cosas como son. Me declaro fan incondicional de Camille Jourdy. Estaba convencida de que nada de lo que publicase posteriormente se acercaría a la maravilla que es Rosalie Blum, y aunque esta Juliette no me ha gustado tantísimo, quizás porque el impacto de lo novedoso se pierde, me parece también una obra genial. Wordless and experimental, Joe Kessler’s “ The Gull Yettin” traces the disquieting connection between a young boy and the shape-shifting, birdlike creature that is obsessed with him. We follow the boy from the death of his family, through a perilous voyage across the water and into, for a time, the care of a woman who takes him in as if he were her own.

Five of the summer’s best and most daring graphic novels

La tribu ne serait pas complète sans la mère qui a refait sa vie. Plusieurs fois. En ce moment, c'est avec un hippie, mais ça pourrait aussi bien être avec un banquier. Ce qu'elle veut, elle, c'est de la légèreté, du rire. Ce que son ex-mari ne lui donnait pas. A vibrant tableau of small-town life as seen through the eyes of a woman returning home from Paris. Camile Jourdy es una genia y esta novela es un fiel reflejo de su mente cósmica. El dibujo es el más bonito del mundo, hay colores pastel y la tipografía es preciosa. Es, sinceramente, una obra de arte. Me ha gustado aún más que "Las Varamillas" y aún me queda por leer "Rosalie Blum". De verdad, la perspectiva de esta autora es única. No he leído nada parecido a esto. Me encanta. Et si je vous parlais de Juliette, écrite et dessinée par Camille Jourdy. C'est une merveilleuse BD tout en rondeur, presque en apesanteur. Les couleurs ont quelque chose qui rappelle du pastel. C'est un charme désuet, comme un tableau du Douanier Rousseau... Oh ! Oh ! After some years devoted to producing children´s works, the author in parallel dedicates part of her time to the creation of her most ambitious work: Rosalie Blum. In 2007, the first volume of the trilogy is published in France. And it is finished by the launching of the third volume of the series two years later.

Jourdy’s graphic novel takes a gently unravelling approach to bittersweet familial and romantic relationships. Though the author offers disaffection as one possible coping mechanism in dealing with a fractured nuclear family, Jourdy’s tale also suggests that some relationships could be as reparative as they are destructive. Beneath a ghost’s pallid costume is a naked, living person. Executed in watercolour and consistently blushing with pigment, Juliette takes us behind the curtains and beneath the sheets. Juliette Le rencontre alors qu'elle erre dans l'impasse où elle a vécu autrefois, même si elle ne s'en souvient pas. Il n'est pas de la famille mais vit dans la maison qui était la leur. Pollux est un vieux garçon qui passe son temps au café du coin, qui se laisse aller. Même ses femmes imaginaires l'ont quitté.

O que máis me impactou: a elegancia coa que está narrado, o ritmo pausado no que se combinan páxinas repletas de pequenas viñetas coloridas ("de repostería", din na solapa) con debuxos a dobre páxina nos que se para o tempo. Jourdy renders these encounters in glorious shades of ripe pink flesh and the deepest green of high summer. De Camille Jourdy me interesa muchísimo cómo, al contrario que la mayoría de autores de cómics, decide que sus historias no traten sobre hechos o personajes extraordinarios sino sobre la suma de vivencias cotidianas que constituyen las vidas anodinadas y costumbristas de la inmensísima mayoría de la humanidad. Me gusta que sus historias incluyan rifirrafes familiares; que sus personajes sean del montón (bajo); que en las conversaciones se hable sobre dinero o cuidados; que la soledad, la mediocridad y la infelicidad planeen sobre sus protagonistas como también planean sobre cualquiera de nosotros, sus lectores. Y todo esto lo cuenta con unos colores vibrantes, preciosos, de una intensidad casi de cuento infantil: y esta dicotomía enriquece mucho la obra porque la vida también es un poco así. featured sponsor Vancouver!
