The Shadows by Vincent Zabus
4.0
'The Shadows' by Zabus with art by Hippolyte is a graphic novel about a terrible journey and an interrogation, but it could be about a lot more.
Refugee 214 has a story to tell and gets to tell it during an interrogation or maybe an interview. The story is how 214 and his sister made a long journey. Along the way, they meet strange creatures who want to help and abuse them. They also find the shadow of their parents, and learn what that means for them.
This was a rather bizarre and engaging graphic novel. It tells the story of a refugee in a beautiful and elegant way. The art is strange, but works very well for the story.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
