Coquelicots d'Irak

Brigitte Findakly and Lewis Trondheim collaborate on this intimate, autobiographical graphic novel published by L'Association in 2016. The story traces Findakly's childhood in 1960s and 1970s Iraq, weaving together personal memories with the country's political upheaval and her family's eventual departure. Lewis Trondheim's clean, expressive artwork brings warmth and clarity to a poignant narrative about displacement, identity, and the fragile beauty of everyday life in a changing world.
