The shape: The graphics are slick, precise line. The designs are all black and white, slightly sepia, with an occasional touch of color (coverage is representative of the album for it, look good, which is in color and is in "sepia"). The designs are sometimes split across multiple boxes, giving an original layout and strengthens the author's message. These aesthetic choices are indeed echoes the depression of our hero, Tom Katz, who said himself early in the book: "Her life has lost its colors, it feels cloisonné emptied." The only pages to be in color, bright and beautiful, as are his wife Anna he appears as pseudo first ghostly hallucinations or as Penelope Brown, and when the fantasy is invited in the narrative.
BD excellent, very well designed, with graphics and color in total support to the story, which begins as a thriller by Agatha Christie (one starts in London) and ends up as a beautiful love story, with an invitation to travel to the beautiful Greek island of Santorini. If you like, read as "Paris New York, New York, Paris" by the same author (the book is invited in this comic dailleurs, much like Hitchcock did in his films), polar and BD less successful, however well built, and provides insight into the author's world
