Le Goût Du Chlore by Bastien Vivès
A spare, sensuous graphic novella that follows two adolescents who form a tentative, intensely felt connection at a local swimming pool; through quiet scenes of water, touch and awkward conversation the story traces their exploration of desire, vulnerability and identity as they navigate first attraction and bodily awakening, with evocative visuals that linger on sensations—the smell of chlorine, the weight of swimsuits, the coolness of water—rendering a tender, bittersweet portrait of coming of age.
