Cœur Tam-Tam #[nn]
"Cœur Tam-Tam" is a quietly powerful story from 2003, written by Tonino Benacquista and brought to life through the unified art of Olivier Berlion, who handles pencils, inks, and colors. It follows Eugène, a retired agronomist who spent his life in Africa and now lives in quiet isolation in rural France, clinging to memories of a palm grove he once built in the Congo—until a masked gang's sudden arrival disrupts his solitude. The cover, also by Berlion, captures the story’s somber tone and intimate setting.

Ingénieur agronome, Eugène a passé sa vie en Afrique avant de prendre sa retraite dans la campagne française. Il vivote dans le souvenir de la palmeraie qu'il avait jadis créée au Congo, mais refuse de quitter sa masure et son terrain pour laisser la place à une raffinerie. L'irruption d'une bande cagoulée va cependant bouleverser sa vie.
