Les carnets de guerre de Louis Barthas 1914 - 1918 #[nn]

Fredman's graphic adaptation of Louis Barthas's celebrated WWI diaries brings the Western Front to vivid life on this striking cover, where a French poilu — steel-helmeted, rifle in hand, pack on his back — picks his way through a blasted, wire-strewn landscape rendered in muted earth tones and grey. Published by La Découverte in 2018, this bande dessinée transforms the firsthand written testimony of an ordinary soldier into a visual journey across the 1914–1918 years. For anyone drawn to the human experience of the Great War, this adaptation promises an intimate and thoughtfully crafted perspective on one of history's most wrenching conflicts.
