Résumé
A deeply touching story spanning three decades, relating the American dream from a woman's perspective!1940s New York. Navit and Arch, a couple of young artists, lead a frugal life together in Brooklyn. While Arch desperately seeks work as an illustrator, Navit goes to work at a cabaret owned by billionaire H. W. Powell, who wastes little time in staking his claim to her. Distraught, Arch flees New York to join the front lines of the war in Europe... Shortly thereafter, upon Powell's death, Navit is left at the head of "Gentlemind," an old-fashioned men's magazine. A feminist ahead of her time, Navit seizes her chance to reshape "Gentlemind" and bring it into the national spotlight, with the help of the eloquent and seductive lawyer Waldo Trigo. However, despite the passing years, Navit is still haunted by the memory of Arch. And she must face a rapidly changing society that's threatening to spell an end to her newfound magazine empire...

Juan Díaz Canales was born in 1972 in Madrid, Spain. He started reading comic books very early on, before getting interested in cartoons. And that was that--he decided to make a profession out of it! At 18, he joined an animation studio, where he met Juanjo Guarnido, who soon became a great friend. Juan remained in Spain while Juanjo went to France to work for the Disney animation studios. But that didn't stop them coming up with one of this decade's greatest comic book projects, the future "Blacksad," a massively successful 1950s-style detective series. Meanwhile, Díaz Canales pursued studies in the fine arts, then, in 1996, founded a company called "Tridente Animation" with three other designers. This got him started working with various European and U.S. companies. He now divides his time between his screenwriting for comics and animation, and supervising TV series and feature film animation. Since "Blacksad," he's worked with numerous illustrators, including José Luis Munuera on his beautiful two-part series "Fraternity" (Dargaud, 2011). He's also taken on the continuation of the adventures of Corto Maltese in collaboration with Ruben Pellejero. His most recent work includes the ambitious "Gentlemind," set in New York and spanning three decades (Dargaud, Europe Comics in English).

Antonio Lapone was born in Italy in 1970. He first worked for an advertising agency before turning towards comics. An avid reader and student of 1950s authors such as Walter Minus, Serge Clerc, and Yves Chaland, he began to develop his own "clear line" style. He soon began to work with Disney in Italy, and earned an award for his debut story "Desy Blonde" (1999). In the years that followed, his work included "Accords sensibles" and "Adam Clarks" with Glénat, among other projects. His latest work is the ambitious "Gentlemind," alongside Juan Díaz Canales and Teresa Valero (Dargaud, Europe Comics in English).
