About the series
Over five albums from 2005 to 2013, French auteur Michel Plessix wrote and illustrated this Delcourt fantasy series, a gentle, pastoral adventure of a young boy and his grandmother navigating a mysterious, wind-swept desert world. Plessix’s lush, watercolor style brings a quiet, contemplative beauty to the story, distinguishing it from more action-driven comics of the era. A lyrical, understated gem from a creator best known for his sensitive adaptations of classic literature.
