Together they would build something deemed impossible: a modern utopia in the wilderness ― but not before Arsène falls in love with his cousin's wife, Marieke. Whether delirious from love or a fever-inducing jungle virus, Arsène's loosening grip on reality is mirrored by the graphic novel reader's uncertainty of what is imagined or real by Arsène. This first full-length graphic novel from the critically acclaimed Olivier Schrauwen is an engrossing, sometimes funny, slightly surreal and often beautiful narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally released in 2014, Arsène Schrauwen heralded the then largely-unknown-to-English readers Olivier Schrauwen as a major voice in international comics ― a reputation that has only gained momentum over the ensuing decade with releases like 2024’s Sunday.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull-color illustrations throughout\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lunar Distribution","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46152695021809,"sku":"DCDL365896","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/9865\/1469\/files\/DCDL365896.jpg?v=1776911632","url":"https:\/\/vaultofmidnight.shop\/products\/arsene-schrauwen-dcdl365896","provider":"Vault of Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
