POP-UP book

Lightning crosses the sky of New York: blackout, the city is plunged into darkness. A girl leaves home and ventures into the street in search of her mother. He has three games with him, for three brilliant moments. On his journey he meets a giraffe and a saxophonist and together they give life to a poetic and evocative story...

Illustrated by Amandine Piu and written by Gilles Baum, the book, which opens like a leporello to become the backdrop of the shadow theater game, is a journey between dream and reality: drawn on black boards with a skillful use of contrasting pastel colors, the story places the reader alongside the protagonist on her journey in search of her mother between encounters and visions, in a play of lights, shadows and hidden details. In its matchbox-shaped case, this book with finely carved pages that reproduce the city skyline is a small marvel of delicacy, poetry and creativity.
