Women literally lose their heads as they
swap limbs and lovers in Aline and the Others,
a collection of 26 sublimely perverse wordless strips by Guy Delisle, best
known for his internationally successful books from D+Q, Pyongyang
and Shenzhen.
Arranged alphabetically, the strips are
named after their 26 vivacious female protagonists who stretch, shrink,
disappear into one another's orifices and jump off the page in stories that are
as hilarious as they are utterly bizarre, dynamically brought to life by
Delisle's skilful hand as an animator.
