Together they would build something deemed impossible: a modern utopia in the wilderness -- but not before Arsène falls in love with his cousin's wife, Marieke. Whether delirious from love or a fever-inducing jungle virus, Arsène's loosening grip on reality is mirrored by the graphic novel reader's uncertainty of what is imagined or real by Arsène. This first full-length graphic novel from the critically acclaimed Olivier Schrauwen is an engrossing, sometimes funny, slightly surreal and often beautiful narrative. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginally released in 2014, \u003cem\u003eArsène Schrauwen\u003c\/em\u003e heralded the then largely-unknown-to-English readers Olivier Schrauwen as a major voice in international comics -- a reputation that has only gained momentum over the ensuing decade with releases like 2024's \u003cem\u003eSunday\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fantagraphics Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45608396259479,"sku":"9798875000928","price":2228.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798875000928.webp?v=1768599763","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/arsene-schrauwen-9798875000928","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
