Self-esteem and the end of the world
Self-esteem and the end of the world
For over ten years, comic book artist Luke has invested everything
in his work and has had some success with it. But two years after the
publication of his latest book, while his creativity is at a standstill and
After his twin brother did not choose him as his wedding witness, the
Luke's career and self-esteem seem to have disintegrated. Against a backdrop of
Climate Change, Self-Esteem and the End of the World spans two decades
to accompany the tragicomic rediscovery of Luke. Among multiple
attempts to regain control through personal development manuals,
writing a detective story to spice up a team building seminar
corporate, tele-advisor job selling life insurance and
participation in the catastrophic film adaptation of a work by
youth, Luke never ceases to search for the place that belongs to him in a world that
collapses around him.
Mixing humor, questions about family and romantic relationships and
introspection, this work questions the social conditioning which acts on
each of us and how to determine our role in the face of
major upheavals of our time.
