L'incroyable histoire des animaux #[nn]

A sweeping visual feast from Karine-Lou Matignon and Olivier Martin, this French graphic work from Les Arènes BD promises to explore the grand story of the relationship between animals and humans. The cover sets the tone beautifully: a crouching prehistoric human reaches out toward a pale wolf in a moment of quiet connection, while behind them rise the magnificent silhouettes of an elephant, a giraffe, horses, and birds — a whole world of creatures rendered in moody blue. It's a genuinely moving invitation into what looks like an ambitious, thoughtful meditation on how our two worlds came to intertwine.
