Rightly, this book was one of the most acclaimed comics back. He entered in the "graphic novel" or at least "author BD". Drawn in a "fuzzy line" style that is well suited to history and remarkably colorful, this book - if maybe it hangs during the first few dozen pages (time to get used to visual style, this strange "saudade" that captures the main character) - brings a world of good. Probably even more to those whose identity is revealed that the complex including a mysterious family history. So, 'Portugal', yes but the book's message is universal.
