Description Original edition The courage of Tintin, the captain Haddock’s florid language, the jewels (and shrieks of horror) of Bianca Castafiore, Milou’s curiosity, the natural class of the Dupondt, or Tournesol’s wit… a universe that enchants us, resonates deep in our childhood, and which we, as adults, hasten to pass on to our children as an inheritance. This very beautiful work traces the genesis of Tintin’s adventures in Le Petit Vingtième and, in the background, sketches the portrait of its brilliant and talented creator, Hergé, alias R.G., alias Georges Remi. As the chapters unfold, album after album, year after year, anecdotes that marked the creation of the twenty-four Tintin albums as well as major episodes in the life of its author are recounted. Richly illustrated, it contains twenty-two treasures, rare and unpublished documents reproduced with care in fac-simile form, including a replica of the first issue of Le Petit Vingtième, dating from 1929. It will delight all discerning Tintin fans, but it is also aimed at a curious and passionate family audience for comics and beautiful books.
