Mauvais Genre by Chloé Cruchaudet
Genre Trouble
Set against the backdrop of World War I and its aftermath, this graphic novel explores the transformative journey of a soldier who, after deserting the front lines, assumes a female identity to evade capture and live freely in post-war Paris. The narrative delves into themes of identity, love, and societal norms as the protagonist navigates the complexities of gender and personal freedom, all while maintaining a tender relationship with their wife. The story is both a poignant exploration of self-discovery and a critique of the rigid gender roles of the early 20th century.
