Résumé
Birds wasting away in a national park, refusing to migrate. Identical geometric markings on the wings of completely different insect species. A pillar of dust in the desert. A small-time hood travels to India's shipbreaking yards in search of a giant nuclear-powered construction robot. A big-time crime boss makes a killing off the Algerian Revolution, in a world where it happened fifteen years later than in our own. "A good story," insists reporter Françoise Halfort, visited abruptly by a post-menopausal pregnancy, "is one that draws unexpected connections between seemingly unconnected events." Four star creators join talents on a vast canvas that takes in the entire French 20th century.

Born on January 30th 1972, Fabien Vehlmann spent a happy childhood in France in Les Landes and the Savoie region before enrolling in business school in Nantes.After a job in a theatrical group, which enabled him to get acquainted with video and radio media, he entered a scriptwriting contest held in 1996 by the magazine ‘Spirou.' His entry, unfortunately, was rejected, because he failed to adhere to the prescribed format. However, this only encouraged him to persevere, and soon he was hooked: he returned home to his parents and did nothing but write scripts for a whole year. And one fine day, ‘Spirou' relented and finally opened its doors to him!Vehlmann made his debut with "Green Manor" (Dupuis, Cinebook in English), with artist Denis Bodart, followed by "Samedi et dimanche" with Gwen (Dargaud; Europe Comics 2020). In 2002, he published "Le Marquis d'Anaon" with Mathieu Bonhomme, and 2004 saw the publication of "IAN" (illustrated by Ralph Meyer), with both series being put out by Dargaud.More recently, in addition to his work on the long-running "Spirou & Fantasio" series, the author has also created the groundbreaking "Seuls" (Dupuis; "Alone," Cinebook), adapted into a film in early 2017.Vehlmann's works are all masterpieces and have already established him as one of the most skillful scriptwriters of his generation.
