Smoke Gets in Your Eyes

Flogny’s elegant artwork, though, goes down smooth as silk. She evokes the 1930s and ‘40s in choice background details and tailored dress, while tastefully suggesting violence rather than depicting graphic bloodshed (though she never soft-pedals her characters’ dark deeds). Her figures move gracefully through the chaos. * Publishers Weekly *The world building is this story Is impeccable, with historical detail in the backgrounds, body language, and character designs to set the stage for this classic crime drama. * Booklist *Smoke Gets In Your Eyes is an exceptional beginning to what I believe will be a remarkable portfolio from Anaïs Flogny. My sincere hope is for future work from the talented Flogny will also be translated into English. * Gay League *Flogny’s crisp artwork nails the period details, from cars to clothing to interior design, and her understanding of body language enriches the character interactions. * AV Club *
