L'Encyclopédie des prénoms #6

Part of Vents d'Ouest's charming L'Encyclopédie des prénoms series, this sixth volume turns its playful lens on the name Nicolas. The cover features a grinning, lanky young man in a red hoodie gesturing proudly beside a word cloud of traits — épicurien, idéaliste, créatif, original, loyal, gourmet — painting a vivid personality portrait before you even open the book. It's a lighthearted, clever concept that makes this 2005 bande dessinée a delightful read for anyone who answers to the name — or simply knows one.
