Alpha: Abidjan to Paris by Bessora

4.0

Stark fictional narrative of a man trying to immigrate from Cote D'Ivoire to France and the people and problems he encounters on the way. It's a bleak picture and I definitely felt the guilt of the expat and tourist who's seemingly oblivious to the struggles of these "adventurers" as he calls himself. The gloomy muddled style of the illustrations adds gravity to the tone of this short graphic novel.
