La Nouvelle Orléans après le Déluge #[nn]

The cover of this French-language edition of Josh Neufeld's A.D.: La Nouvelle-Orléans après le Déluge sets the tone immediately — a submerged cityscape stretches across the top, smoke billowing on the horizon, while five distinct portraits of real New Orleans residents line the bottom, each rendered in Neufeld's clean, expressive style. Published by La Boîte à Bulles in 2011, this graphic novel brings documentary storytelling to the human cost of catastrophic flooding, grounding its drama in the faces of the people who lived through it. A thoughtful and visually compelling work for readers drawn to comics that take on weighty real-world events.
