Loire (French edition) by Etienne Davodeau

Étienne Davodeau's grand return to fiction is expressed through a poignant tale, tinged with melancholy and light, in direct color. With "Loire", the author of "Lulu femme nue" once again explores a portrait of a woman, but set deeply on the banks of the Loire, a region with many facets and rich heritage.

Louis returns to the house he shared with Agathe, but he discovers that the place has changed. An unknown couple now lives in the house. Jalil, the man who succeeded Louis in Agathe's heart, enters the scene, followed by Suzanne, an acquaintance of Jalil, and Nicolas, a mysterious stranger with no apparent connection to the group. Finally, there is Laure, Agathe's daughter, who grew up unaware of her father's identity.

As the pages turn, each character evokes the absent Agathe in a collective whisper where the Loire seems as alive as they are, a silent witness to their pains, hopes, and secrets. The Loire, through its meanders and flow, embodies the soul of this story, a symbol of continuity and mystery.

With vibrant illustrations and a finely woven script, Étienne Davodeau offers us an album that speaks of absence, love, loss, and renewal, all through the prism of the Loire, omnipresent, gentle, and majestic.
