Notes
Description
"Though most of Barbarann's residents have lived in peace since its fall thanks to a citizen-run government, Boris, a tuber-headed boy, reigns like a despot from the little house he lives in with his mother, the former Queen Aglaia. When Boris meets Sabine, a warrior French fry thirsty for revenge, the potato child is ready to fulfill his destiny and crafts a nefarious plot to take over the land...The third book in Anne Simon's "Tales of Barbarann" graphic novel series -- following The Song of Aglaia and Empress Cixtisis -- Boris the Potato Child is a razor-sharp satire of our worst capitalist and consumerist impulses, as abundant in visual imagination as Oz or Narnia, but crafted with a Swiftian pen that's mighties than any man's sword." --,From back cover.
