Jardin d'hiver #[nn]

Paul Rey's Jardin d'hiver, published by Éditions Sarbacane in 2019, opens with a cover that immediately transports you to an otherworldly landscape — ribbed dome structures nestle among rust-colored rocky terrain beneath a sweeping sky blazing with pink and violet clouds. The winding road stretching into the distance and the strange sentinel-like devices dotting the cliffs give the scene a quietly eerie, science-fictional stillness that feels both alien and oddly habitable. It's a beautifully composed invitation into what promises to be a thoughtful, visually rich work.
