Rodolphe is consoled by a friend and snaps out of his funk, becoming the life of the party.

Evens’s darkly comic stories of characters on the verge of personal discovery—people about to become who they will be for the rest of their lives—have never been more beautifully conceived, more intricately planned, than in his magical new graphic novel, The City of Belgium.
