A graphic novel written, illustrated and colored by Pierre Alary based upon the novel by Sorj Chalandon. Alary's two albums, Mon Traitre and Retour a Killybegs, tell the same story from opposite perspectives: the betrayer and the betrayed.

From the publisher:

"The bastard is sometimes a great guy who gives up. "

Antoine, a Parisian luthier, falls in love with Ireland. Fascinated by its culture, its landscapes and the warmth of the people, the young Frenchman meets Jim and Cathy who will become precious friends. All are part of the Irish republican movement, and carry out actions on behalf of the IRA. One evening in Belfast, he meets the charismatic Tyrone Meehan, head of the IRA, veteran of all battles against British power. Antoine wasted no time in embracing the cause of these people. Captivated, the young Frenchman found in Tyrone a mentor, a dear friend, almost a father. Then a traitor ... "My traitor", as Antoine calls him, to designate this man who was in reality, for twenty-five years, an agent acting on behalf of the English. He had betrayed them all, his parents, his children, his comrades, his friends and him, every morning, every evening ...

Résumé

« Le salaud, c'est parfois un gars formidable qui renonce. »

Antoine, luthier parisien se prend d'amour pour l'Irlande. Fasciné par sa culture, ses paysages et par la chaleur des gens, le jeune français rencontre Jim et Cathy qui deviendront des amis précieux. Tous font partie du mouvement républicain irlandais, et mènent des actions pour le compte de l'IRA . Un soir à Belfast, il fait la connaissance du charismatique Tyrone Meehan, responsable de l'IRA, vétéran de tous les combats contre la puissance britannique. Antoine ne tarde pas à embrasser la cause de ce peuple. Captivé, le jeune Français trouve en Tyrone un mentor, un ami très cher, presque un père. Puis un traître... « Mon traître », comme l'appelle Antoine, pour désigner cet homme qui fut en réalité, vingt-cinq ans durant, un agent agissant pour le compte des Anglais. Il les avait tous trahis, ses parents, ses enfants, ses camarades, ses amis et lui, chaque matin, chaque soir...

Alary, Pierre
