Il mérite relecture et analyse approfondie. C'est la sorte de BD dont on aimerait discuter, se parler, s'échanger sur l'histoire, la philosophie, l'art, découvrir les multiples reférences, faire des nouvelles associations..

The second book of "The Obscure Cities" has the power of a parabole. The narrative is so well constructed, that it feels (like the great dystopian classics and all sci-fi masterpieces) like a fable for grown ups. It has a timeless quality. And there is nothing I want to say about the story itself, because it could only serve as a spoiler. Except that this is another case of a perfect marrige of word and image. This story is told as much by Peeters' illustration as it is by Schuiten's writting.
