Clivages #1

Three children building a snowman in a quiet winter yard — an image of innocent childhood calm — while an enormous military tank looms directly behind them, its gun turret dominating the snowy scene. The stark contrast between that fragile moment of play and the cold steel of war gives this opening volume of Clivages, subtitled Lignes de Front, an immediate, unsettling tension. Published by Robinson/Hachette in 2018, this French-language series arrives with a cover that speaks volumes before a single page is turned.
