Comme sur un nuage

The two-volume French comic Comme sur un nuage (2020–2021, Éditions Akata) is a gentle, introspective slice-of-life story about a young woman navigating the quiet rhythms of daily life and her own emotional landscape. Written and illustrated by the acclaimed Japanese-born, France-based artist Shigeki Amagai, this three-issue series stands out for its delicate watercolor art and meditative pacing, offering a cross-cultural perspective on finding contentment in small moments. It matters as a tender, visually poetic work that bridges European and manga-influenced storytelling.
