Review: Les enfants de la salamandre

20-08-2011 19:20 20-08-2011 19:20 I read these three comic book albums some 20 years ago. They are absolutely fantastic. They contain very passionate and violent images, combined with some scenes of kindness and affection that stand out by comparison. Esotheric and biblical elements are located in the roughness of southwesternern USA.

The story is based very strongly on a poem by Rainer Maria Rilke and gives it a completely new dimension. The same is done with a song of Laurie Anderson. These techniques are woven into the story so naturally that it awakens a strong sense of fascination.

What I will do here is analyze the work as much as my limited mind can handle and add some links to informational places on the internet. lees verder
