Les Jardins du Congo #[nn]
From La Boîte à Bulles comes this striking French-language graphic novel, Les Jardins du Congo, with a cover that immediately commands attention: a vivid turquoise background sets off a bold orange-tinted menagerie — elephant, lion, zebra, hyena, crane, vulture, and monkey — crowded together in a striking tableau, while two human figures (one in colonial dress carrying a rifle, another in traditional attire) survey the scene from above. Nicolas Pitz crafts a visual world that feels simultaneously lush and charged, hinting at the layered relationship between humanity and the natural abundance of the Congo. At 21,00 EUR, this 2013 release from La Boîte à Bulles is a genuinely compelling addition to any Francophone comics collection.
