Papayou #[nn]

Two large, contemplative primate figures loom over a tropical landscape on Matthias Arsgui's striking cover, their oversized heads rendered in contrasting grey and pale tones against a bold sweep of red, orange, and black. Between them sits a calm white dog, while smaller monkeys frolic and tumble through the palm-fringed undergrowth below. This 2018 French-language graphic novel from Éditions Thierry Magnier carries a quietly surreal atmosphere that promises something both playful and deeply strange.
