Le fleuve mauve #[nn]

A solitary figure sits dockside, sketchbook in hand, quietly observing a working harbor where a fishing vessel glides past a striking modern building — a wonderfully grounded, atmospheric scene that sets a contemplative mood. Published in 2000 by the Association Normande de Bande Dessinée, Le Fleuve Mauve brings together the talents of Heitz, Felix, and Sterin for what promises to be a thoughtfully crafted slice of waterfront life. Fans of European bande dessinée with a taste for everyday poetry and finely observed urban landscapes will find this one quietly irresistible.
