French milk graphic novel6/3/2023 ![]() ![]() No harm done though, as Lucy is an illustrator and she documents her days in Paris with her amusing drawings and some photography of food, sights, stores and the people she encountered along the way. Since I purchased it on a whim, I didn’t read enough to know that French Milk is a graphic novel. ![]() In many respects I like how Parisian women function. I was sold at ‘Paris’, since I have been quite interested in all things Parisian lately – the city, the eiffel tower on anything, macaroons and expensive French skincare products. I also read a brief summary that describes French Milk as a travel diary on the city of Paris, where Lucy and her Mother decide to live for six weeks, each facing a milestone birthday. How could I not? The text and illustration on the cover would hold anyone’s attention. Even though the old adage says, “You shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover”, that’s exactly what I did. ![]() So I allowed myself pick one thing to the value of about €10 and so, I ended up with this very sweet little book. ![]() After an hour or so of tossing random gifts for family and friends into the little shopping cart, I decided my good work shouldn’t go unnoticed – I wanted a reward! It being Christmas time and all, cash was of the essence. This little book, ‘French Milk’ by Lucy Knisley popped up in my featured recommendations on Amazon just before Christmas. ![]()
