Forlagsbeskrivelse af MISERY OF LOVE af Donald Nicholson-Smith
Colonial history haunts this stunning, spectral-looking graphic novel, a spiritual sequel to the authors Yellow Negroes and Other Imaginary Creatures. In Misery of Love, a spiritual sequel to the acclaimed Yellow Negroes and Other Imaginary Creatures, Yvan Alagbé continues his interrogation of race and family in modern France. The book focuses on the dream-like memories of a woman named Clare, who is spending time with her family for her grandfathers funeral. Alagbé shifts between narratives of the family, all haunted by the legacy of Frances colonial subjugation of Africa. Alagbé works in stormy grayscale washes, using comics, as he puts it, as a sacred dimension which celebrates, questions and perpetuates life. . I believe that life is not damnation but grace. This is another ambitious, devastating masterpiece from one of Frances best contemporary cartoonists.
