Kinderen in het verzet #2

The cover of this second volume in Benoît Ers and Dugomier's wartime series immediately draws you in with its striking circular vignette: three children rushing urgently along a set of railway tracks, while a soldier's hand gripping a rifle looms ominously in the foreground. The muted, sepia-toned design — with ghostly period figures fading into the background — perfectly captures the tension and fragility at the heart of Kinderen in het verzet. Published in 2018 by Le Lombard, "Eerste repressie" promises a story where childhood and conflict collide in ways that feel both historically grounded and deeply human.
