La Forêt - Une enquête buissonnière #[nn]

Claire Braud's La Forêt — Une enquête buissonnière draws you into a sun-dappled woodland mystery with its quietly arresting cover: a lone figure sprawled on the forest floor among tall, slender trees, surrounded by scattered papers and a bottle, the lush green undergrowth stretching into soft hills beyond. There's something both unsettling and dreamlike about the scene — is this person resting, lost, or at the center of something stranger? Published by Casterman in 2022, this Franco-Belgian album looks like a thoughtful, atmospheric exploration of the forest and whatever secrets it holds.
