Montreal-based cartoonist, Cathon presents 100+ one-page, (mostly) four-panel, slice-of-life comics – along with a handful of two-pagers and a couple longer pieces – all of which make for refreshing, relaxing reading.  

Cannily translated from the French original by Robin Lang and Helge Daschler, with full humor intact.

Crisply printed in black & white on a nice, off-white, flat paper stock, and packaged in a pleasingly textured, pebble-grained, French-flapped softcover.
