Jean-Jacques Sempe's cartoons are famed for their striking use of pen and ink, their inimitable style, their flair for satire and tragic-comic vision. Most are sweet and sentimental and somehow manage to be gentle even when the topic is difficult. This book features a series of 128 single image sketches that probe the quirks of daily life in Paris.
Sempé succeeds in pinpointing the quintessential features of everyday Paris from lovers strolling along the Seine to culture mavens preening in the Louvre. Anyone who is in love with Paris will be sure to want this charming book as a keepsake.
