We're so excited to be publishing this beautiful and internationally bestselling graphic novel by master illustrator-storyteller ChristopheChaboute, coming out in English for the first time in July! (Hint hint, if you love the adaptation of #MobyDick, which went on sale Feb 8 from darkhorsecomics you're in for a treat!) ✏️
✏️
On a tiny lighthouse island far from the rest of the world, a lonely hermit lives out his existence. Every week a supply boat leaves provisions, its occupants never meeting him, never asking the obvious questions: Who are you? Why do you hide? Why do you never leave? What is it like to be so alone?

Years spent on a deserted rock—a lifetime, really—with imagination his sole companion has made the lighthouse keeper something more than alone, something else entirely. For him, what lies beyond the horizon might be . . . nothing. And so, why not stay put? But one day, as a new boatman starts asking the questions all others have avoided, a chain of events unfolds that will irrevocably upend the hermit’s solitary life . . .

Filled with stunning and richly executed black-and-white illustrations, Alone is #Chabouté’s #masterpiece—an unforgettable tale where tenderness, despair, and humor intertwine to flawlessly portray how someone can be an everyman, and every man is someone.
