Description
A coming of age story in the tradition of Tillie Walden's Spinning.
Antoine, 13 years old, is on holiday at the seaside with his parents and his younger brother, Titi. Both spend most of their time drawing, at restaurants and on the beach. One night, Antoine discovers another person lying in their bedroom. Hélène is 16 years old; she and her mother came to spend a few days and her presence and behavior will change Antoine's life.
In "A Sister", Bastien Vivès, a master of suggestion, conveys the stumbling awakenings of adolescent desire. The story is a narrative jewel, created by one of the most important authors of the contemporary international graphic novel scene.

BASTIEN VIVES spent his childhood drawing with his brother. His studies focused on illustration and animation at the Ecole des Gobelins. After movie-making classes, he dived into comics, and his first title came out in 2007.

Advance Praise
A true director, he conceives like films, with tragic tension, erotic power, without ever falling into the vulgar.
PARIS MATCH
Features of genius.
MADAME FIGARO
This paper teen-movie has a universal force, enough thickness and troubled reliefs that we cannot sum it up to a summer romance.
THE INROCKUPTIBLES
Perfect graphics that leave plenty of room for emotion, for fine reading.
