1928, Amsterdam. Boughéra El-Ouafi wins the marathon.
Through the eyes of the young Algerian-born Frenchman, Nicolas Debon tells the story of this legendary race. Thanks to Debon’s increasingly sensitive drawing style, the athlete’s emotions come clearly through the pages. Twenty-six miles of hope, doubt, and discipline accompany each frame against a red-ochre backdrop that seems to come directly from the dust-covered track.
After “Le Tour des géants”, “L’Invention du vide” and “L’Essai”, Nicolas Debon offers us a striking graphic novel about the wild competition that is the marathon — undoubtedly the race that has come up the hardest against both minds and bodies.
