Le voyage de Marcel Grob #[nn]

A sea of helmeted Waffen-SS soldiers fills the cover of this 2018 Futuropolis graphic novel, with one young, wide-eyed face standing out among the anonymous mass — a quietly arresting image that speaks directly to the book's subject: a 17-year-old French boy conscripted into the SS in June 1944. Philippe Collin and Sébastien Goethals use that stark, monochromatic illustration to set a tone that is as unsettling as it is historically charged. A compelling work for anyone drawn to World War II history told through personal, ground-level perspective.
