Constance Malbois, Foreign Rights Manager "This dazzling graphic novel gets it right when addressing issues of gender, sexuality, and love at different ages in life."

Summer 1997, suburbia: a wife would like her husband to pay her just a little more attention, but he’s such a busy man--sprawled on the couch, engrossed by a Formula 1 race on TV. Upstairs, her teenage daughter is sneaking a smoke out the bedroom window. Backpack at the ready, she's about to slip outside and go take on the world. Meanwhile, her brother has other things on his mind: what should a young boy who's not a princess do when he feels the burning desire to kiss his neighbor? Through the innocence of childhood games, Quentin Zuttion questions our impulses to love, homosexuality, and desire, in a breathtaking and dreamlike tale.
