A devilish new album illustrated by Benoit Springer. An ostrich farmer and his teenage lover keep murdering his shrewish wife, but she keeps returning...

From the publisher:

Josep Pla, known as Pep, is an ostrich farmer in an isolated tienda. One night, after thirteen years of an abominable marriage, he slaughters his wife before throwing her body in the bottom of a well and getting rid of the traces. Finally, he will be able to run away with Isabela, his daughter-in-law rotten by hatred, who dreamed of this murder as others dream of their engagement.

Except that...

Back home, relieved of his accomplishment, Pep did not expect to be welcomed... by his wife. Ugly and alive, and still unbearable. An incomprehensible discovery that ignites Isabela's anger, convinced that her lover is not worth a nail. Because if the dead is still alive, then who is in the well? And how many more times will it be necessary to kill her so that she will never come back to ruin their existence?

Gore and appalling, "The smiling little girl" is a black story, an excellent spiral of horror and madness.

Josep Pla, dit Pep, est éleveur d'autruches dans une tienda isolée. Une nuit, après treize ans d'un abominable mariage, il massacre sa femme avant de balancer son corps au fond d'un puits et de se débarrasser des traces. Enfin, il va pouvoir se la couler douce avec Isabela, sa belle-fille pourrie par la haine, qui rêvait de ce meurtre comme d'autres rêvent de leurs fiançailles.

Sauf que...

De retour chez lui, soulagé de son devoir accompli, Pep ne s'attendait pas à y être accueilli... par son épouse. Laide et bien vivante, et toujours aussi insupportable. Une découverte incompréhensible qui enflamme la colère d'Isabela, persuadée que son amant ne vaut pas un clou. Car si la morte est encore en vie, alors qui est dans le puits ? Et combien de fois faudra-t-il encore la tuer pour qu'elle ne revienne plus jamais leur gâcher l'existence?

Gore et épouvantable, « La petite souriante » ? C'est oublier le talent de conteur de Zidrou, allié aux sombres ambiances de Springer, qui nous offrent avec cet album un récit noir, une excellente spirale d'horreur et de folie. Une BD de genre terriblement grinçante, à vous filer la chair d'autruche.

Springer, Benoit
