Une enfance de paille

Atrabile’s Une enfance de paille (2023–present) is a single-issue comic that distills a childhood into a quiet, tactile memory. The series, launched by the Swiss publisher known for its avant-garde line, relies on a spare, poetic approach to frame a rural past. Its matter-of-fact title, “A Straw Childhood,” signals a work more concerned with atmosphere and texture than narrative—a brief, resonant snapshot from an era and talent whose work lingers.
