Un village français #1

Set against the bustle of a French village train station in 1914, this opening volume from Gaudin and Aleksic introduces a richly drawn cast of townspeople — men, women, and children gathered amid steam and French tricolor flags as a locomotive arrives. The cover perfectly captures the weight of an era on the cusp of transformation, rendered with warm, detailed linework that brings early 20th-century provincial life vividly to the page. Published by Soleil in 2015 as the companion BD to the acclaimed France 3 television series, Un Village Français Tome 1 is an inviting entry point into this story of ordinary people in extraordinary times.
