Our Heritages: A History of Our Revolutions Told to My Son (French Edition) By Fred Bernard

Our Heritages: A History of Our Revolutions Told to My Son is a powerful and deeply humanistic graphic novel, by Fred Bernard, a recognized author and illustrator. At the crossroads of autobiographical narrative, diary, historical essay, and philosophical tale, this book challenges, touches, and provokes thought.

Through a series of dialogues with his young son, Fred Bernard retraces the major turning points of humanity, from agricultural revolutions to social struggles, including scientific, moral, and spiritual advancements that have shaped our world. He interweaves his own memories, doubts, wonders, and wounds to answer seemingly simple but essential questions:
“What is the purpose of life, dad?”
“How does one become a man?”
“Was it better before?”

This journey through space and time, carried by sincere and accessible writing, is enhanced by the author's delicate and colorful illustrations. Each page is a work of art in itself, blending poetic lines with a clear-eyed view of the world. The narrative presents an emotional and educational fresco on what we pass on—or not—to future generations.

This graphic novel is aimed at curious adults as well as teenagers seeking guidance. It particularly resonates with the values of transmission, memory, and collective consciousness. In times of social, environmental, and identity upheavals, Our Heritages appears as a necessary book.
