L'enfant penchée

L'enfant penchée is a graphic novel by Belgian comic artists François Schuiten and Benoît Peeters, the sixth volume of their ongoing Les Cités Obscures series. It was first published in serialized form in the Franco-Belgian comics magazine À Suivre (#193-212), and as a complete French volume first in 1996 by Casterman. Although subsequently also published in at least Dutch and German, L'enfant penchée remains unpublished in English as of 2008, however an English translation authorized by Casterman is available on the internet as a .txt file (see External links below). This translation has been used to letter a French scan, so an unofficial English version of the comic does exist online.
