Per quanto tempo resteremmo esseri umani, persi in una foresta? Una graphic novel spietata e universale che ci interroga sul rapporto intimo, violento e poetico fra l’Uomo e la Natura. Il vagabondaggio di una giovane donna, dispersa in montagna, a contatto con la natura incontaminata, nella quale sprofonda progressivamente, lasciando emergere la sua parte selvaggia. La natura, lontana dai paesaggi da cartolina, si rivela ostile, aspra, spietata, reale: quella Natura che non possiamo controllare e che quindi non sappiamo comprendere. “Una lettura Zen, violenta e poetica. Una graphic novel immensa.” – La Voix du Nord La saggezza delle pietre ci insegna a ritrovare il nostro posto nel mondo.

In the years since, Gilbert has done books for children (such as Nordics with Sarbacane) and other works skewed more toward adults, including Sauvage ou la sagesse des pierres, with Vide Cocagne). In 2018, Gilbert completed Les Filles de Salem (Dargaud; The Daughters of Salem, Europe Comics), plunging himself and the reader into the oppressive world of Salem, in 17th-century New England.
