Cocteau, l'enfant terrible #[nn]

This 2020 Casterman graphic novel brings the life of the celebrated French polymath Jean Cocteau to the page, its elegant cover immediately setting the tone — a minimalist gold line portrait of a young man in profile, rendered in a style that evokes Cocteau's own fluid draftsmanship. The subtitle l'enfant terrible promises a portrait as bold and unconventional as its subject, courtesy of creators Laureline Mattiussi and François Rivière. A beautifully designed volume that wears its artistic ambitions right on its cover.
