From the writer-artist of Kairos, a one-shot album. Just as action-packed but set in 1950s war-torn Tibet.

From the publisher:

"The important thing is what you choose to believe."

Harry believes in himself, and he believes in Jade. He came from his native England to Tibet to meet this mythical woman, like his father years ago ... He wants to prove that magic can exist, that his father has not disappeared in the Himalayas for nothing! It does not matter if he has to oppose dozens of Tibetans and Chinese Communists on the way. The road will be dangerous, and his meeting with the Tibetan culture, so rich and so spiritual, will take him on an adventure he would not have imagined ...

Ulysse Malassagne takes us, by the force of his editing and the dynamism of his drawing, on a violent and enlightening journey, wonderfully evoking the invasion of Tibet and its incomparable spirituality ... Jade does not just surprise the reader by multiple twists, but also manages to open his eyes to another way to see the world ...

Le mot de editeur:

« L'important, c'est ce qu'on choisit de croire. »

Harry, lui, il croit en lui, et il croit en Jade. Il est venu de son Angleterre natale jusqu'au Tibet pour rencontrer cette femme mythique, comme son père des années auparavant. Il veut se prouver que la magie peut exister, que son père n'a pas disparu en Himalaya pour rien ! Peu importe s'il doit s'opposer à des dizaines de Tibétains et de Chinois communistes en chemin. La route sera périlleuse, et sa rencontre avec la culture tibétaine, si riche et si spirituelle, l'emmènera dans une aventure qu'il n'aurait pas imaginée.

Ulysse Malassagne nous emporte, par la force de son découpage et le dynamisme de son dessin, dans un voyage initiatique violent et éclairant, évoquant à merveille l'invasion du Tibet et son incomparable spiritualité... Jade ne se contente pas de surprendre le lecteur par de multiples rebondissements, mais parvient aussi à lui ouvrir les yeux sur une autre façon de voir le monde.

Malassagne, Ulysse
