Although it chronicles the life of a dog, Laika, the new graphic novel from Nick Abadzis, is the most human of stories. Using Russian state archives, interviews, imagination and exceptionally nuanced art, the British comics creator has fashioned a poignant and accurate portrait of the lives Laika touched in the three years leading up to Sputnik II’s launch. His characters—including the dog—are as real as the story he’s telling: animated with complex personalities, flaws, humor and emotion.
Laïka est un sujet qui me touche toujours, c’est pour cela qu’il me faudra lire ce livre. Je me souviens avec émotion de son rôle dans Habitus de Flint, par exemple.
