Beautiful artwork accompanying some very precious stories. I just loved the  all things queer aspect of it. So many relationship contemplative books, but still we have not enough that depict queer relationships in all its complexity. This one is a goodie <3

This was an enjoyable graphic novel about relationships of all kinds and stages. It was refreshing in its diversity and representation. The illustrations were an interesting style and lent well to the stories. The stories had a rawness and a realness to them that made me Feel, even if they weren't necessarily something I could directly relate to.

I'm not sure I would recommend it to anyone, but it did pass my escape test.

Quand l'amour se multiplie et se divise. Qu'il s'accroche dans les fleurs du tapis ou file vers les étoiles. Quand tout ne tient qu'à un fil s'étirant sous les pieds des funambules amoureux. Tout est alors possible, mais rien n'est vraiment certain. Julie Maroh propose un audacieux kaleidoscope de l'amour, celui qui pousse hors des ornières. Avec sa scénarisation fracassant les certitudes et faisant un pied-de-nez aux préjugés, et son univers visuel tout en éloquence délavée, ce roman graphique ose dire avec tendresse et lucidité. Bémol majeur toutefois: la parlure québécoise maladroitement imposée aux personnages détonne et agace, et sa «traduction» en notes de bas de page fait littéralement décrocher. Dommage de gaspiller une si belle plume en lui plaquant une voix qui n'est pas la sienne...
