Élodie Durand is a French cartoonist who has written and illustrated several children's books including Les grandes années.

Élodie's published her black and white graphic novel Parenthesis in 2011. It is the story of Julie, barely out of her teens, when she develops a brain tumor that leads to seizures, memory gaps and a loss of self.

The opening of parenthesis that may never close interrupts the sentence of her normal life.

Parenthesis is actually a memoir based on Élodie's real life experience of her own brain tumor.

It was her debut title and was awarded the Revelation Prize of the Angoulême International Comics Festival.

Parenthesis is schedule for release for the first time in English through Top Shelf/IDW publishing January 12th, 2021.

Élodie Durand resides in Marseille, France and joins me for this interview with her friend and translator Lena.

Learn from the source what Élodie's experience was like, how she managed to close the parenthesis and the advice she has for others suffering from a sense of loss.

Before we conclude our interview I Kick Back With the Creator and ask Élodie about her favorite birthday, her beverage of choice, life in Marseille and her next project.
