Sugar #[nn]

A sleek black cat with glowing yellow-green eyes sits with regal stillness against a muted blue-grey background — and that single, quietly magnetic image says everything about the tone Serge Baeken brings to Sugar: Ma Vie de Chat. Published by Dargaud in 2014, this album invites readers into what promises to be a warmly observed, feline-eyed view of the world. The cover's understated elegance is a perfect first impression for anyone who has ever suspected their cat knows far more than it lets on.
