Summary:
Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) est une artiste moderne de réputation internationale, connue pour ses sculptures faites de bois, d'acier, de pierre et de caoutchouc moulé. La plus célèbre, Maman, est une araignée de plus de dix mètres de hauteur. Tout comme l'araignée qui tisse sa toile et la répare, la mère de Louise était tisserande et réparait des tapisseries. Pendant son enfance, Louise a fait son apprentissage auprès d'elle, avant de devenir elle-même artiste tapissière. Louise a travaillé le tissu tout au long de sa carrière, et cet album biographique est une illustration de l'expérience qui lui a inspiré ses oeuvres les plus célèbres, celle de l'enfant tissant aux côtés d'une mère aimante et attentionnée. Par son récit poétique et superbement nuancé, le livre déploie sous nos yeux la relation entre la mère et la fille, et jette un jour lumineux sur le tissage des souvenirs en chacun de nous.

Summary:
This innovative, ironic, and metaphoric exploration of the life of worms is a stunning showcase of Noemi Vola’s impressive and versatile talents as both an illustrator and a writer. Her funny, clever illustrations are paired with pithy, ironic text that conveys all you ever needed (and perhaps never needed) to know about worms. Beginning with ''factual'' material about worms in general, from eating habits to underground habitats to its varying shades of pink, there is much to discover about worms. The narrative then follows one worm in particular through a tragic loss of its better half (also known as the worm’s tail), becoming a metaphor for all who have loved and lost. The humor of both illustrations and text are paired beautifully, introducing a distinctive new artist with honed literary sensibility to the American audience.
