Abstract
The oeuvre of the graphic novel author Guy Delisle provides a unique window into the relationship between work and personal life in graphic novel creation and in cultural work more generally. In two books set in two non-Western countries, Chroniques de Jérusalem (2011) and Chroniques Birmanes (2007), Delisle considers his experiences as an expat father and graphic novelist, while at the same time depicting daily life and political realities in fraught locations. In another series, Le Guide du Mauvais Père (2013–15), he focuses more specifically on fatherhood.
