MOTHER WAR (Maël/Kris) 2010-2016

There is no shortage of war

The investigation by Lieutenant Roland Vialatte (gendarmerie) is met with derision in the inhuman trenches. Three women were murdered, while hundreds of victims are mourned in the trenches every day. And they have to be content with the (too) often heard sentence: "Death for the fatherland!"

We try to describe the swan song of civilization: barbed wire, frozen mud, blood spatter, body parts, acrid smoke, flying debris, deafening bangs, corpses, soaked and frozen, mustard gas that you will continue to taste and smell,... The raw drawings of Maël (Mother America, Milton's Dreams) could not be more fitting. Sergeant Fernand Desloches puts it this way: "I don't think I can function outside of the war."

Corporal Gaston Peyrac is certainly a suspect and with Eva - Roland's Austrian girlfriend - our detective still gets hope in his life. We already thought that God himself had also died in this war. Despite the horror, this is a real page-turner. Author Kris (The World of Lucie, The Bluecoats) does make us fear the ending... Let's wait for the day that generals also start to get sense. Will the soldiers continue to obey the orders of those guys in the meantime? The cowardice and indifference of the officers will stay with us for a long time.
