Huom: pohjautuu Patrick Rambaudsin romaaniin
*September 1812 Napoleon and his Grande Armée enter Moscow without facing the slightest resistance. Unsurprising, as the city is empty. Where are the people? Where are the food supplies? The next evening, the Chinese quarter is ablaze. The fire soon engulfs the pine houses, but it’s impossible to fight: the fire engines have disappeared. It’s a trap!
Following The Battle (Historia Prize for best historical comic book in 2014), Frédéric Richaud and Ivan Gil bring us a spectacular adaptation of Patrick Rambaud’s The Retreat – a novel that, when released in 2000, left several hundred thousand readers awestruck.
Berezina gives an unembellished account of Napoleon’s appalling Russian campaign which, over the six months it lasted, saw more than three hundred and fifty thousand people perish, and proved to the world that Napoleon was not invincible after all.*
