Affaires de famille #[nn]

A solitary elderly figure in a wheelchair sits in shadow on the left, gazing across a threshold into a warmly lit room where a lively group of family members gestures and interacts — a quietly powerful image of distance and belonging. Will Eisner's Affaires de Famille, published by Delcourt in 2012, brings the master storyteller's deeply human sensibility to the complexities of family life. The cover alone, rendered with Eisner's characteristically expressive linework, promises the kind of emotionally resonant storytelling that makes his graphic narratives so enduring.
