With his masterful illustration style, bestselling French creatorstoryteller Chabout (Alone, MobyDick) explores community through a common, often ignored object: the park bench.From its creation, to its witness to the fresh ardor of lovers, the drudgery of businessmen, the various hopes of the many who enter its orbit, the park bench weathers all seasons. Strangers meet at it for the first time. Paramours carve their initials into it. Old friends sit and chat upon it for hours. Others ignore the bench, or (attempt to) sleep on it at night, or simply anchor themselves on it and absorb the ebb and flow of the area and its people.Christophe Chabouts mastery of the visual medium turns this simple object into a thoughtprovoking and gorgeously wrought meditation on time, desire, and the life of communities all across the planet. This could be a bench in my hometown or yoursthe people in this little drama are very much those we already recognize.
