Panels of Protest
Briefly

"Elise's story feels relevant and timely—a gesture toward the resurgence of unionization efforts taking place today, reflecting a cycle of activism across generations."
"Throughout the graphic novel, Tardi weaves political events—such as the brutal response to Algerian liberation—with the personal evolution of Elise's character, showcasing both individual and societal transformations."
"As Elise evolves from a student to an activist, her journey captures the spirit of the 1968 protests, interlinking personal aspirations with broader societal movements of the time."
"The book serves as a multifaceted portrait not only of Elise but also of the era, illustrating how historical events shape personal identities and activism."
