L'homme et le loup #[nn]

Based on Jack London's elemental tale of survival and unlikely kinship, this Editions Plein Vent album adaptation carries the weight of the wilderness right on its cover — a bearded, heavily bundled man wading through icy shallows as snow falls around him, while a lone wolf lingers watchfully in the misty distance behind. P.-E. Dequest renders the bleak Arctic landscape with striking painterly delicacy, the muted blues and grays evoking both the harshness of the terrain and a quiet, fragile tension between the two figures. A handsome 2025 volume for readers drawn to stories where humanity and nature test each other to the bone.
