Schrauwen Olivier: Arsene Schrauwen

In 1947, the authorâ??s grandfather, Arsene Schrauwen, traveled across the ocean to a mysterious, dangerous jungle colony at the behest of his cousin. Together they would build something deemed impossible: a modern utopia in the wilderness â?" but not before Arsene falls in love with his cousinâ??s wife, Marieke. Whether delirious from love or a fever-inducing jungle virus, Arseneâ??s loosening grip on reality is mirrored by the graphic novel readerâ??s uncertainty of what is imagined or real by Arsene.
