Vagin Tonic #[nn]

A playful and refreshingly candid graphic novel from Casterman, Vagin Tonic announces itself with a cover that perfectly sets the tone: a cheerful, glasses-wearing figure lounging gleefully inside an oversized cocktail glass, complete with a striped straw and a citrus garnish, all rendered in a bright yellow-and-pink palette by Lili Sohn. The subtitle — Mon petit guide décontracté de la foufoune — signals that this is a lighthearted, no-nonsense guide to the topic at hand, warm in spirit and unapologetically fun. If you're looking for something that blends humor and body-positive conversation in comic form, this 2018 release from Casterman makes an inviting case for itself right from the cover.
