Ce road-movie intimiste est l'une des BD à ne pas manquer en cette rentrée
Edward Dacres is an unforgettable anti-hero, a dissolute abstract painter whose fortunes in London have dwindled to nothing.When a misdirected letter invites him to take part in a delegation to bring art to the "Colonies," Dacres seizes the opportunity. Once in North America, however, a series of mishaps forces Dacres to abandon the troupe and try his luck in the puritan climate of 1939 Toronto, most of whose citizens have their thoughts on the war and don't care a whit for his painted triangles. Most, that is, with the notable exception of a beautiful heiress with an eye for art and a wilful determination to save Dacres from himself. Goya's Dog is a love story laced with satire and a historical novel bearing on contemporary truths. A picaresque tale of gin, cowardice, and artistic paralysis, it toys with our notions of the artist's role in times of war and considers the selfishness inherent in our passions--and the self-sacrifice fundamental to love.
