Book Reviews of Asterios Polyp
Book Review: "graphic" and "novel"
Summary: 5 Stars
Here is a magnificent piece of « graphic novel », brilliantly « graphic » indeed : the story is told inside each page by curves, lines, colors, symbols, sights (and incidentally, those specific graphic signs : letters of the alphabet). Asterios Polyp is a real character, wich means he's only a way of looking, like anyone else, like you and me. Une "vue de l'esprit" like we say in french, see what I mean ? I wouldn't have even looked at this great book, had it been a mere « novel ». But, wow, what a « graphic novel » !
