Iegor and Catherine Gran
Necropolis of Our Pop Icons
A genre defying book par excellence, written with the most subversive and witty pen in French contemporary literature, Iegor Gran’s, and stunningly illustrated in fine black and white drawings by Catherine Gran.
What would Mickey Mouse’s mausoleum look like? And Batman’s vault? How did Barbie die? And what would be written on Pacman’s tomb? Iegor Gran imagines, with his legendary black humour, their latest journeys while Catherine Gran draws their necropolis, as strikingly beautiful as their glory is eternal.
From one imagined death to another, it is our own society’s paradoxes and hangups that Iegor Gran debunks with his incisive sense of observation to deliver a punchy and hilarious satire.
