A beautiful hardcover collection of Caza stories from the early years of Métal Hurlant/Heavy Metal. These color stories showcase his incredible visual storytelling; lush, highly controlled ink line; and psychedelic color palette.

From the publisher:

A psychedelic journey to the heart of the HLM suburbs of the 1970s.

A shrewd explorer of modern Western life, Caza scrutinizes its twists and turns. Through short stories, Scènes de la vie de banlieue is the chronicle of an era caught between ambient conformism and the desire to change the world. We come across buccaneers at the helm of their suburban pavilion flying the black banner of revolt, nymphets on the verge of suicide saved in extremis by love salesmen, and rednecks with sad eyes looking for an escape route. In vain. A universe wonderfully highlighted by Caza's graphic dexterity and corrosive tone.

Resume:

Un voyage psychédélique au cœur des banlieues HLM des années 1970.

Explorateur avisé de la vie occidentale moderne, Caza en scrute les méandres. Au travers d'histoires courtes, Scènes de la vie de banlieue est la chronique d'une époque prise entre conformisme ambiant et désir de changer le monde. On y croise des flibustiers à la barre de leur pavillon de banlieue arborant l'étendard noir de la révolte, des nymphettes au bord du suicide sauvées in extremis par des VRP de l'amour et des beaufs au regard triste qui cherchent une sortie de secours. En vain. Un univers formidablement mis en valeur par la dextérité graphique et le ton corrosif de Caza.

Caza, Philippe
