About the series
A contemplative French graphic novel series from Casterman, L'Eau des collines adapts Marcel Pagnol's classic Provençal novels into a lush, watercolor-driven comic form. Running just two issues since 1997, it is most closely associated with artist Jacques Ferrandez, whose painterly style captures the sun-drenched landscapes and quiet human dramas of early 20th-century rural France. Though brief, the series stands as a reverent and visually striking translation of beloved literary material into sequential art.
