Dark humour, very dark. Somtimes to the borders of the fantastic, even when it picks in the reality of everyday. The Gruet's drawings are still funny, gratting, sometimes alarming.

A hand is diving in the sand: When it comes back, fingers has disappeared. A woman is sawing without hope the bar of her bed under the eyes of her husband. A man is getting off his glasses, and the eyes come with.

 

The poetry is not absent in this album, nor the tenderness. Like this extraordinary serie about the hand of a drowned man which goes out of the water (Gruet seems to have an obsession for the hands) and meet another hand, female, entwining each other.

The album " Points de suspension " has a lot of things like that. Gruet has put a way very personally, to express a humour wich is too.
