At the Heart of the Wave (2020)

Les Arènes Publishing, Paris, 2020

From March to August 2020, Chappatte kept a drawn journal of the Covid-19 epidemic. Emergency room doctors, epidemiologists, healthcare workers and service staff are its main protagonists. The cartoonist casts a sincere and poignant eye on these unsung "fighters". Although the story takes place in Geneva, its human scope is universal. It is also a tribute to the patients and their loved ones. Chappatte's editorial cartoons published during the crisis humorously complement the narrative. At the heart of the wave makes us relive an extraordinary period of our history.
