«Atan des Cyclades» is the historical comic by Judith Vanistendael, published by Coédition Futuropolis/Louvre Editions in hardcover (128 pages, in French).
Set in the Cyclades islands 4,000 years ago, it follows a boy in the throes of puberty who carves small figures of mythological heroes. His passion for carving, inspired by the author's son, shapes an intimate tale about a little-known Aegean civilisation, with works that seem to anticipate the statues held by the Louvre.
Published in November 2022. Translated from Dutch by Hélène Robbe, with an epilogue by Fabrice Douar.
For readers of historical graphic novels who want to discover an intimate approach to Greek antiquity.
