What a good idea have had editions Points suggesting illustration of Alcohol by James Debeurme! Debeurme is a cartoonist who publishes in Cornelius albums while strangeness and whispers (I can only advise you The Great Other, album whose title refers to psychoanalysis, and that will take you into a psychic and dreamlike journey like they do not ...). It is clear that the alliance between the two artists gave a beautiful book, already as an object (choice of paper, layout, color printing ...) and as a literary text. If the Apollinaire poems are not as marked by psychoanalysis as modernism ("You read the prospectus catalogs posters that sing out loud / Here this morning poetry and for prose there are newspapers") and a pre-Surrealism (it was he who coined the term, "superréalisme"), Ludovic Debeurme has adapted his style to produce rich illustrations sense, varied (black and white, color, full page, two full pages ...) and are just as poetic visions perfectly transcribe the text of Apollinaire. A small book of poetry so to give people you love, especially adolescents; he likes them a lot and can address some difficult poems from another angle.
