Les compagnons de la Libération #8

This eighth volume in Bamboo Édition's Les Compagnons de la Libération series turns its attention to the legendary island of Sein, rendered here with quiet power by Brice Goepfert. The cover depicts a rust-sailed fishing boat numbered 1074, crowded with men and flying the French tricolor, pushing through choppy Atlantic waters past a pale lighthouse — a stirring image of collective courage and departure. Writer Jean-Yves Le Naour and Goepfert make a compelling team for telling this piece of French wartime history in the grand angle format.
