The Day When... Bonds Are Forged (Volume 7)

We are often willing to make great sacrifices to preserve a friendship, a love, a bond.

So as not to displease. Even to meet expectations that are not our own. The way we were raised, the events of everyday life, of the world, sometimes lead to a moment where we no longer believe in our connection with others, in their presence, in their love.

We feel alone, alone with ourselves, alone with our solitude. But the touch of a hand, the softness of a word, a smile, a shared moment, the beauty of the world, can help us believe in these bonds again.

Through the short stories in this 7th volume, Clémentine continues to weave connections between fictional characters and real-life individuals.

She fosters this bond of unity, life in its most beautiful expression, the expression of our true nature: TO LOVE.

By our editorial & library committee

With this seventh volume of Le Jour où..., Beka and Marko deliver a profound meditation on the bonds that unite and define us. Published by Bamboo, this feel-good series continues to explore major existential questions with a sensitivity and poetry rarely seen in the world of comics.

The strength of this volume lies in its ability to delve into the fragility and beauty of human connections. The authors accurately explore how we sometimes sacrifice our truth to preserve a bond, how solitude can overwhelm us, and how "the touch of a hand, the softness of a word, a smile" can bring us back to connection.

The metaphor of weaving runs throughout the narrative: Clémentine weaves connections between fictional characters and real-life individuals, creating a tapestry where each story resonates with the others. This narrative approach reinforces the central message: we are all connected, and our true nature is TO LOVE.

We recommend this volume and the entire series to readers in search of meaning, to sensitive souls who seek to understand the nature of human bonds, and to all who believe that love and connection are at the heart of our humanity. A comic book that touches the heart and uplifts the soul.

Our rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — A poetic meditation on human bonds that touches the heart of our true nature.
