"Lonely Hearts." A slice of contemporary life and one man's search for love beautifully depicted by the award-winning artist of Equinox, Portugal, Three Shadows, Ring Circus, Shaolin Mussaka, and Brigade Fantome. Text in French.
From the publisher:
How do you talk about a period of malaise without sinking into either pathos or analysis? In 'Les Coeurs solitaires', Cyril Pedrosa succeeds in making us laugh at a difficult situation without belittling his character. With subtlety and liveliness, using dialogue which is frequently caustic yet also rings true, he gives us a detailed portrait of an unhappy young man, who is neither brilliant nor ordinary, but who knows what to hang on to and who has his dreams just like everyone else! An artist from the Disney animation studio, his style of drawing is powerful and precise. His mischievous eye for detail enables him to create a subtle, sensitive portrait of loneliness. He switches from realism to full-on fantasy with total ease.
Resume:
Comment parler d'un moment de " mal être " sans sombrer dans le pathos ou l'analyse ? Avec "Les Coeurs solitaires", Cyril Pedrosa réussit le pari de nous faire rire d'une situation délicate sans dénigrer son personnage. Avec délicatesse et vivacité, dans des dialogues souvent piquants et qui sonnent juste, il nous donne la mesure d'un jeune homme mal dans sa peau, ni brillant ni médiocre, mais qui sait à quoi s'en tenir et qui n'a pas moins de rêves que les autres ! Dessinateur issu de Disney (de l'animation), son dessin stylé est énergique, précis. Son sens malicieux du détail brosse un tableau subtil et vibrant sur la solitude. Il nous fait remarquablement passer d'une situation réaliste au fantasme débridé avec beaucoup de naturel.
