Description
"One winter's morning, illustrator Barroux was walking down a street in Paris when he made an incredible discovery: the diary of a soldier from the First World War. Barroux rescued the diary from the rubbish and subsequently illustrated the soldier's words. We have no idea who our soldier is or what became of him. We just have his own words about the first two months of the war, and Barroux's accompanying images." --
