Les cahiers japonais

In Les cahiers japonais, French cartoonist Jirō Taniguchi shares a deeply personal travelogue of Japan, rendered in his signature delicate, observational style. Published in three volumes by Futuropolis between 2015 and 2021, this series blends memoir, cultural history, and landscape art as Taniguchi revisits childhood haunts and explores iconic sites. It stands as a gentle, reflective farewell from a master of manga, offering a quiet meditation on memory, place, and the passing of time.
