Juliette boards a train from Paris and comes back to her hometown hoping for a low-key visit with family and old friends. What she finds is anything but. Her sister, a caregiver and mother of two, is carrying on an elaborate affair with a man from a costume shop. Her parents, separated, are now estranged. Father is sure he s developing Alzheimer s, though it s more likely that he s simply getting old. Mother, on the other hand, revels in the second act of her life as a free woman, an artist with a show at their local gallery to prove it. Slowly, Juliette finds herself entangled with the unlikely Georges, a dyspeptic alcoholic who is stuck in his life. These divergent paths inevitably cross against a gloriously painted backdrop of eccentric small-town living. Camille Jourdy s beautiful watercolor pages provide an unfeigned mileu for the subtle dramedy at hand in Juliette. All too real human emotions, bittersweet and relatable in their rawness, come together to form a poetic realism.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: CAItem Height: 240mmItem Length: 195mmAuthor: Camille JourdyTranslator: Aleishia JensenContributor: Aleishia Jensen (Translated by)Genre: Graphic NovelsISBN-10: 1770466649Type: GenreRelease Year: 2023 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
