About the series
A compact, two-issue manga series from Asuka, Le portrait de petite Cosette reimagines Victor Hugo's tragic orphan as a supernatural figure in modern Japan. Published from 2008 onward, the series is most closely associated with its creator, who crafts a haunting, atmospheric story where Cosette's lingering sorrow manifests as a ghostly presence. Though brief, it stands as a poignant, artistic tribute that bridges classic French literature with contemporary Japanese manga sensibilities.
