Table of ContentsReviews[T]his is a compelling book about the politics of memory and the visual practices of France's graphic novels. Jennifer Howell provides a rich case study of French comics about the Algerian War that is both historically resonant and immediate in its contemporary applicability. European Comic Art Jennifer Howell displays her remarkable expertise in The Algerian War in French-Language Comics: Postcolonial Memory, History, and Subjectivity, a monograph where the interdisciplinary nature of French cultural studies is beautifully illustrated. Howell's work shows how French-language comics about the Algerian War have both shaped and reinterpreted historical memories and consequently affected France's relationship to its colonial past as well as its legacy in the present. As such, her book not only engages with colonial and postcolonial studies, but also with history, memory and postmemory.
