Luther Arkwright and its sequel Heart of Empire, as well as the Grandville series of books. Below are the annotations for the Grandville Mon Amour pages 1 to 20: you can also go straight to the annotations for pages 21 to 40, pages 41 to 60, and pages 61 to the end. A sequel, Grandville Mon Amour, is currently in production and due to be. To be honest the plot was not terribly surprising, and (unlike Spiegelmann's Maus) we never get a good handle on why some people are badgers, others dogs and others again hippopotami, but the loving and colourful detail of the story's bizarre background, combining familiar landmarks with inhuman faces and steampunk technology, is pretty memorable. Bryan Talbot, Grandville Mon Amour splash page - Comic Strip. Grandville is a British graphic novel written and drawn by Bryan Talbot. England has recently regained independence and declared itself a socialist republic after a bloody occupation by France, and LeBrock finds himself investigating an escaped prisoner and a series of murders which take him to a top-level political conspiracy.
Grandville Mon Amour is set in an alternate London and Paris, where all characters (apart from a couple of human muggers) are anthropomorphised animals: Inspector LeBrock, the central figure, has the head of a badger. NwhyteAgain, thanks to the Hugo shortlist I have tried one of the great graphic novel writers for the first time, and while I was not as blown away by this as I was by the first two volumes of Mike Carey's The Unwritten, I am realising that I should look out for more Talbot.
