The latest from the renowned French comics team of Ruppert & Mulot – and, crucially, colorist Isabelle Merlet, whose choice of palette and overall color scheme is central to this work's appeal –  weaves together artistic production, modern technology and contemporary sexual mores in a tapestry of self-abnegation in the service of self-realization.

According to Fanta, The Perineum Technique is "a contemporary meditation on seduction and intimacy in our era of hyperconnectivity. Playing skillfully with visual metaphor in lieu of sexual explicitness, Florent Ruppert and Jérôme Mulot invite you to follow them into a charged maze of emotional head games, as experienced through the subconscious of young romance."

IS it French?  Yes, very. (But, of course, here quite serviceably translated into the English language by Jessie Aufiery.)
