Sfar So Far
Sfar So Far is the first monograph in any language devoted to the graphic novels of Joann Sfar, an artist whose abundant and innovative work has profoundly marked the contemporary French comics scene. This book examines how, over the past two decades, Sfar has constructed an idiosyncratic universe with its own thematic and stylistic recurrences: a playful drafting style, contrasting with the thoughtful introduction of historical, theological, and philosophical matters; a sophisticated use of literary, filmic, musical, and pictorial references; an exploration of his own Jewish heritage in the context of a multicultural, postcolonial French society; an affinity for magic realism, fairy tales, heroic fantasy, the fantastique, and science fiction, often filtered through irony or parody; and a predilection for romantic musings and an interest in unconventional love stories.
Klezmer, Collector's Edition
Graphic novel in which nomadic Jewish musicians meet, clash, fall in love and make music at the birth of klezmer.
Vampire Loves
A collection of four graphic comics that follow the strange and romantic adventures of Ferdinand the vampire and his friends.
Normal
Normal rassemble les dessins que Joann Sfar a publié sur internet au début de l'année 2014 en s'inspirant de l'actualité autour du président François Hollande. Ce dernier devient un vrai personnage de fiction et permet à l'auteur d'aborder de nombreux sujets d'actualité, sans polémique, avec un humour mordant et toujours tendre.

Little Vampire
Living in a house filled with grown-up ghouls and monsters, Little Vampire is so lonely that he’s even willing to go to school if that’s what it takes to find friends. Unfortunately, school seems to be filled with children who are still alive. . . . Little Vampire finds friendship with a boy named Michael, and they embark on adventures in the three stories in this collection. Included in this book are Little Vampire Goes to School (a New York Times Bestseller), Little Vampire Does Kung Fu, and Little Vampire and the Society of Canine Defenders (now published in the United States for the first time). Insightful and inventive, Joann Sfar brings Little Vampire and Michael’s fantastical world to young readers in stories that both feed the imagination and resonate with emotional truth.

Les Idolâtres
Why does a person draw? To fill the void left by a mother who died too young and too quickly? That may be part of it. But not only. For Joann Sfar, author of The Rabbi’s Cat series and many other celebrated graphic works, drawing is as much a religion as it is a human science – an activity whereby the artist both observes the world and confronts it. But what drawing also makes possible is to leave the world for a while and invent it anew. From the death of his mother to how to get published, Joann Sfar plumbs the depths of his life with the sincerity, humor, and passion for which he is widely known.
