Le Silence de nos amis

In this single, self-contained graphic novel published by Casterman in 2012, Le Silence de nos amis explores a quiet, intimate story set against the backdrop of the 1960s civil rights movement. The book is best known for the collaborative work of writer Mark Long and artist Nate Powell, whose expressive black-and-white art brings a personal, human-scale perspective to a pivotal era. It stands as a thoughtful, character-driven entry in the historical fiction genre, valued for its nuanced portrayal of unlikely connections across racial divides.
