Paroles d'honneur

A French series launched in 2017 by Les Arènes, Paroles d'honneur collects and presents firsthand testimonies from veterans of the First World War, pairing their spoken words with evocative art. The series is built around a single, powerful issue that distills these historical voices into a graphic narrative, offering a direct, unadorned window into the soldiers' experiences. It matters as a poignant archival project, preserving oral history in comic form.
