A captivating graphic novel from the Harari brothers: Lucas, the author-illustrator of the graphic novel Swimming in Darkness, and Arthur, the Oscar-winning co-writer of the Palme d'Or–winning film Anatomy of a Fall
In Paris, David Zimmerman, a photographer in his thirties, seems perpetually adrift in life, consigned to a career photographing weddings and bar mitzvahs. On New Year's Eve, he's taken to a huge party by his only friend, Harry; in the middle of the crowd, his gaze falls upon an enigmatic young woman whose summons he can't help but follow. In the dead of night, David wakes up ... in the body of the woman he met earlier.
Featuring bold and dramatic illustrations, The Case of David Zimmerman is a thrilling mystery that weaves themes of sex, identity, loneliness, and body dysmorphia.
