- Amalia is on the verge of burnout. Her family life-with her husband, Karim; her 4-year-old daughter, Lili; and her 17-year-old stepdaughter, Nora-is nothing but rushing around, screaming, and doors slamming. At work, they talk about agility, flexibility, and adaptation, but her workload is slipping away from her. As she drives through the countryside, she sees diseased wheat fields and polluted rivers. She can't even listen to the radio without some new story about deadly attacks and a dying climate. Amalia struggles, tries, fails... and eventually, she cracks.
Born in 1979, Aude Picault earned a degree in visual communication at Les Arts déco, the renowned art and design school in Paris. Her first step toward comics came in 2004, with the publication of 'MoiJe,' followed by a quick succession of other projects: 'Papa' (L'Association, 2006), 'Les mélo maniaks' (Glénat, 2008), 'Transat' (Delcourt, 2009), and 'Comtesse' (Les Requins marteaux, 2010), before teaming up with Fabrice Parme for the comic book adaptation of the cartoon 'Famille pirate' (Dargaud, 2012; 'Pirate Family,' Europe Comics). She continued her collaboration with Dargaud in the years to come with 'Parenthèse patagone' (2015), recounting her sailing trip around Patagonia, 'Idéal Standard' (2017; 'Limited Edition,' Europe Comics, 2018), an acclaimed graphic novel relating the daily life of a thirty-something woman, taking the reader beyond the usual love-life clichés, and 'Amalia' (2022; Europe Comcis in English), a graphic novel about an over-worked mother faced with burnout and a world in ecological crisis.
