Il Mare Verticale
India è una maestra elementare. Ha un fidanzato, che è spesso via per lavoro, una classe di bambini adorabili, e soffre di attacchi di panico che a volte la paralizzano. India non scappa dalla malattia, la affronta, ma la pressione dei genitori dei bambini perché lei sia allontanata dal lavoro comincia a pesarle addosso come un macigno. Brian Freschi intesse un affresco narrativo che è allo stesso tempo individuale e a più voci, su piani narrativi differenti, ma tutti costruiti intorno a una protagonista memorabile per il suo desiderio di voler essere unica, ma normale. Ilaria Urbinati illustra la storia elevandola a un livello sublime, e rendendo le emozioni così specifiche di India accessibili a tutti, tradotte dal linguaggio universale del disegno. Un gioiello di narrazione delicato, ma incisivo; uno dei migliori fumetti italiani dell’anno, secondo noi.
Dictionnaire culturel de la mer et de la marine
Quelle que soit la manière dont on l’envisage, l’avenir de notre monde est étroitement lié à celui de nos mers. C’est désormais évident lorsque l’on s’engage pour le climat, la biodiversité ou la préservation des écosystèmes mais aussi pour l’énergie et sa transition hors des énergies fossiles. C’est également indéniable lorsque l’on parle de géopolitique, de commerce international ou d’accès aux ressources minières. Et encore plus lorsque l’on s’intéresse à la santé, à l’alimentation ou aux bioressources. Cette importance majeure des mers et de tout ce qui permet de s’y déplacer devrait nous pousser à nous préoccuper davantage de leur sort. ...
La Mer verticale
India est sujette à des crises de panique. L'air lui manque soudain au point de la faire suffoquer. Pourtant, elle a tout pour être heureuse : un compagnon, qui l'aime – Pier – et un métier qu'elle adore – institutrice. Mais quand une de ces attaques la surprend en pleine classe, les parents mettent la pression sur la direction pour qu'elle soit licenciée. Quant à Pier, il est perdu. Peu à peu, elle prend conscience que chercher à vaincre son « ennemi » est vain. Et qu'il vaut mieux tenter de l'apprivoiser. En parallèle à la thérapie qu'elle entame dès le premier chapitre, elle a recours à l'écriture et fait appel à son imagination. Une belle histoire de résilience intime délicatement mise en scène par un dessin hyper sensible et une palette de couleurs tout en nuances et en fragilité. Le noir, magnifique et inquiétant, illustre les états dans lesquels est plongé le personnage et les contes qu'elle raconte à ses élèves.

California Dreamin'
California Dreamin' from Pénélope Bagieu depicts Mama Cass as you've never known her, in this poignant graphic novel about the remarkable vocalist who rocketed The Mamas & the Papas to stardom. Before she was the legendary Mama Cass of the folk group The Mamas and the Papas, Ellen Cohen was a teen girl from Baltimore with an incredible voice, incredible confidence, and incredible dreams. She dreamed of being not just a singer but a star. Not just a star—a superstar. So, at the age of nineteen, at the dawn of the sixties, Ellen left her hometown and became Cass Elliot. At her size, Cass was never going to be the kind of girl that record producers wanted on album covers. But she found an unlikely group of co-conspirators, and in their short time together this bizarre and dysfunctional band recorded some of the most memorable songs of their era. Through the whirlwind of drugs, war, love, and music, Cass struggled to keep sight of her dreams, of who she loved, and—most importantly—who she was.
Mina
Mina the mouse is very upset when her father brings home a pet "squirrel" that she is certain is a cat.
The Spider King
When a fleet of spaceships crashes into northern Europe in 956 AD, a group of unlikely Viking heroes are the last line of defense against a brutal intergalactic warlord. Equal parts science fiction and fantasy, The Spider King follows the adventures of Viking warriors as they defend their world against alien invaders armed with futuristic technology and impossible weapons in this clash of genres. It takes all of the best aspects of medieval fantasy and science fiction, and smashes them together to create an unexpected twist on two well worn stories.
