1978: rainy day in the Ivory Coast (Clément Oubrerie)

I love how the sketchiness of the inking works perfectly with this rainy scene. It's from book one of the terrific series Aya de Yopougon, scripted by Marguerite Abouet, recounting her life spent living in a small town in Côte d'Ivoire, late 70's. At least, that's the starting point. I'll try to do a proper overview later, after I've read more of the books.

The French publisher is Gallimard / Bayou, and at least some of the books were translated to English by Drawn & Quarterly. An overview of the series is at Bedetheque.
