Carnet de bord

A compact, four-issue series from France's influential L'Association, Carnet de bord (2002–2004) offers a spare, introspective look at travel and daily observation. Known for its quiet, hand-drawn aesthetic, the series captures the small, lived moments of a journey rather than grand adventure, reflecting the publisher's commitment to personal, author-driven comics. It stands as a modest but resonant example of early-2000s French alternative comics, where the act of recording becomes the story itself.
