  1. 1. La Légèreté

    A luminous graphic memoir that follows a cartoonist in the wake of the 2015 attack on Charlie Hebdo as she confronts shock and grief and gradually rediscovers joy through drawing, visits to museums, and close readings of poets and painters; blending delicate, playful illustrations with clear-eyed reflections, the book traces how art, humor and the pursuit of beauty can restore a sense of lightness and make life bearable again.
