Juliette: Or, the Ghosts Return in the Spring

Product Information

Wordless and experimental, Joe Kessler’s “ The Gull Yettin” traces the disquieting connection between a young boy and the shape-shifting, birdlike creature that is obsessed with him. We follow the boy from the death of his family, through a perilous voyage across the water and into, for a time, the care of a woman who takes him in as if he were her own.

Talking is reserved for when we’re really drunk or high, or about to be murdered or something,” says Sammie of male friendships early in Mattie Lubchansky’s “ Boys Weekend.” It’s a statement that will be cast into relief over the course of the story, which finds the transfeminine Sammie (who, like Lubchansky, uses they/them pronouns) reluctantly joining a bachelor party gone spectacularly bad. By the end of their time on the artificial island El Campo, a sort of near-future Las Vegas where anything goes, Sammie and their former friends have gotten drunk and high, and been about to be murdered together, but talk still comes with only the greatest difficulty — when it comes at all. Et si je vous parlais de Juliette, écrite et dessinée par Camille Jourdy. C'est une merveilleuse BD tout en rondeur, presque en apesanteur. Les couleurs ont quelque chose qui rappelle du pastel. C'est un charme désuet, comme un tableau du Douanier Rousseau... Oh ! Oh ! To take issue with Thomas Wolfe, sometimes you can go home again. Just don’t get your hopes up too high.

Peut-être qu'ils finiront pas aller mieux. Peut-être que la vie peut-être aussi simple et aussi jolie qu'un caneton qui s'égaille dans une cuisine. Peut-être... Ou pas. Qui sait? A vibrant tableau of small-town life as seen through the eyes of a woman returning home from Paris. Instead of focusing on what kind of articles will attract the most advertising dollars, we can spend time devoted to researching and writing stories that our readers find most valuable and make the most positive impact in our region.

Juliette: Les fantômes reviennent au printemps by Camille Juliette: Les fantômes reviennent au printemps by Camille

Her sister, a caregiver and mother of two, is carrying on an elaborate affair with a man from a costume shop. Her parents, separated, are now estranged. Father is sure he’s developing Alzheimer’s, though it’s more likely that he’s simply getting old. Mother, on the other hand, revels in the second act of her life as a free woman, an artist with a show at their local gallery to prove it.Esta obra narra hechos cotidianos y el agitado movimiento que realmente tiene la vida. A pesar de que a veces consideramos que todo es monotonía y rigidez, realmente siempre estamos metidos en cien mil fregaos. Las cosas como son. Me declaro fan máximo de Camile Jourdy y en concreto de esta historia. De hecho, a fecha de hoy, considero que es una de las mejores novelas gráficas que he leído. Directamente incluido en mi estantería de "joyitas".

If you'd like to join thousands of readers who help make independent journalism possible, consider joining Tyee Builders. Thank you. In the broadest terms, Léonie Bischoff’s “ Anaïs Nin: A Sea of Lies” can be read as a comic book biography of its subject. Drawing primarily on Nin’s “ Henry and June” and “ Incest,” it retells the stories of several of her most famous sexual and romantic entanglements. More important, though, it attempts to make sense of Nin’s effort to conceive of herself as a writer, often over the protestations of the men in her life. De Camille Jourdy me interesa muchísimo cómo, al contrario que la mayoría de autores de cómics, decide que sus historias no traten sobre hechos o personajes extraordinarios sino sobre la suma de vivencias cotidianas que constituyen las vidas anodinadas y costumbristas de la inmensísima mayoría de la humanidad. Me gusta que sus historias incluyan rifirrafes familiares; que sus personajes sean del montón (bajo); que en las conversaciones se hable sobre dinero o cuidados; que la soledad, la mediocridad y la infelicidad planeen sobre sus protagonistas como también planean sobre cualquiera de nosotros, sus lectores. Y todo esto lo cuenta con unos colores vibrantes, preciosos, de una intensidad casi de cuento infantil: y esta dicotomía enriquece mucho la obra porque la vida también es un poco así. Her very first contribution to the graphic narrative world takes place in 2004, when her first comic is published; Une araignée, des tagliatelles et au lit, tu parles d´une vie. This work shows a firm experimental vocation, where Jourdy plays with the narrative possibilities of the media. Camille Jourdy’s marvellous new comic book begins with a train journey: a young woman, Juliette, is leaving Paris, and heading for the small town where she grew up. Exhausted by the city and the seething anxiety from which she has suffered ever since she was a girl, she longs for the awkward embrace of her somewhat complicated family: her divorcee father, now lonely enough to be on the dating apps; her mother, an amateur artist with bohemian leanings who has recently taken yet another younger lover; her older sister, Marylou, who though in possession of both a husband and two small children, is also having a one-day-a-week affair with a man who works in a fancy dress shop (he comes to her for joyful afternoon sex in her greenhouse, disguised as a bear, or a wolf, or a ghost).

We're able to focus our attention on publishing impactful journalism in the public interest, and publish it for free for all to read, because we have the support of Tyee Builders. Camile Jourdy es una genia y esta novela es un fiel reflejo de su mente cósmica. El dibujo es el más bonito del mundo, hay colores pastel y la tipografía es preciosa. Es, sinceramente, una obra de arte. Me ha gustado aún más que "Las Varamillas" y aún me queda por leer "Rosalie Blum". De verdad, la perspectiva de esta autora es única. No he leído nada parecido a esto. Me encanta. Il n'est pas de la famille mais vit dans la maison qui était la leur. Pollux est un vieux garçon qui passe son temps au café du coin, qui se laisse aller. Même ses femmes imaginaires l'ont quitté. Je suis entrée dans la librairie dans l'espoir d'y trouver "Rosalie Blum" -le film m'a eue!- et j'en suis ressortie avec " Juliette" sous le bras, ne sachant pas trop si j'étais ravie de ce changement imprévue de cavalière ou bien déçue. J'ai appris que parfois, il fallait se méfier des élans lyriques d'un libraire par trop énamouré.
