Animal Lecteur #3

Any devoted reader will recognize themselves in this cover: a curly-haired, bespectacled bookworm propped up in bed at 2:51 a.m., still absorbed in a book while a sleeping partner lies beside them — and a tower of unread volumes stacked precariously high on the nightstand serves as a gentle, hilarious rebuke to the subtitle *On Peut Pas Tout Lire!* ("You Can't Read Everything!"). Sergio Salma and Libon capture the tragicomic plight of the compulsive reader with real warmth and wit in this 2012 Dupuis volume. It's a love letter to books and the people who can never quite put them down.
