Le Médecin malgré lui

A single-issue comic adaptation of Molière's classic farce, this 2005 release from Vents d'Ouest translates the play's mistaken identities and comic beatings into the visual language of a bande dessinée. While the series remains open-ended, this solitary volume captures the satirical spirit of the original, with the artist and writer faithfully rendering the story of a woodcutter forced to practice medicine against his will. It's a concise, respectful entry in the long tradition of adapting French literary classics into comics.
