Very beautiful novel graphic novel by Jules Stromboni. The story is set in a village in southern Corsica in the 19th century.

His engraving technique is quite unique:

I draw on sheets of acetate that have been engraved with a nail. I sketch out my story and my layout in pencil on the back. Then I literally attack the plastic sheet with the nail. I draw blind. Next, I apply ink to the plate with a cloth, and finally, the drawing emerges—sometimes with little accidents that I work with.

Here’s a video of his technique.
