Synopsis

With his masterful illustration style, bestselling Frenchcreator-storyteller Chabouté (Alone, Moby-Dick) explorescommunity through an everyday, often ignored, object: the common park bench.From its creation, to its witness to the fresh ardor of lovers, the drudgery ofbusinessmen, the various hopes of the many who enter its orbit, the park benchweathers all seasons. Strangers meet at it for the first time. Paramours carvetheir initials into it. Old friends sit and chat on it for hours. Others ignorethe bench, or (attempt to) sleep on it at night, or simply anchor themselves onit and absorb the ebb and flow of the area and its people. This could be a benchin my hometown or yours - the people in this little drama are very much those wealready recognize.
