«Agrippine» is the humor and social satire comic by Claire Bretécher, published by J'ai lu in paperback format (47 pages, in French).
Agrippine, a cynical and well-read fourteen-year-old teenager, is the protagonist of this social satire: she asks her father for money, corrects her mother's outdated vocabulary and argues with her intellectual boyfriend, Modem. Claire Bretécher humorously reflects the tics and language of French youth, and the tensions between generations.
First volume of the Agrippine series. The work was originally published in 1988; this Librio edition is from 2005 and reproduces the complete text.
For fans of European humor comics and social satire, with a special interest in the generational portrait.
Claire Bretécher was a French cartoonist, known particularly for her portrayals of women and gender issues. Her comics often narrated femininity from a different perspective and reinterpretted gender roles. Her creations included the satirical comic series Les Frustrés, and the unimpressed teenager Agrippine.
