Glückliche Tage

Based on a short story by Samuel Beckett, Glückliche Tage is a starkly faithful comic adaptation of the absurdist play, rendered by artist Zuzu for Edition Moderne. Launched in 2022, this single-issue work translates the existential drama of a woman buried up to her waist in earth into a visual language of quiet, poignant panels. It stands as a notable example of literary comics, capturing the claustrophobic rhythm and dark humor of Beckett's original text with a restrained, expressive line.
