Lucille

Lucille by Ludovic Debeurme
Lucille is a French coming of age graphic novel about an anorexic girl and a suicidal boy who find love for each other in their uniqueness. The first part of the book is depressing in it's description of how these young people became so seriously troubled. This is followed by an uplifting middle as they find meaningful companionship despite their problems. Illustrated with black and white line drawings that are expressive despite their simplicity.
