I still find some of Fabien Toulmé's comments a bit naive and irritating when he describes his conversations with Hakim (since they come from a privileged person who should make a greater effort to question himself) but I loved the graphic novel and Hakim's story touched me greatly

I can't help but feel that the novel is already somewhat dated while at the same time, it touched me by its accuracy in showing the inability to communicate one's anxieties and desires, the guilt that many women feel, etc.
