“Comme un chef”, a new graphic novel by Peeters and Aurita published

A new graphic novel collaboration, this time between Benoît Peeters and Aurélia Aurita, has been published and featured as one of the highlights of this year’s Angoulême festival, at the main stand of renowned publishing house Casterman. The novel is autobiographical, about Professor Peeters’ student days and love of cooking, quite humorous, authentic and wonderfully drawn by Aurelia Aurita. If you wondered what gourmand taste Roland Barthes had and how he preferred his food, you’ll certainly find out!

A blog review post about the book was published by Jan Baetens of the Institute for Cultural Studies in Leuven, “cultural studies leuven” (blogging since 1425 :D), read here: https://culturalstudiesleuven.net/2018/01/10/food-culture-much-more-than-a-lifestyle/
