TW: Ableism, Homophobia, Eugenics,

I was super interested in this book from just the description, and honestly it didn't disappoint story wise. While it does address some very sensitive topics, I struggle to to think of a time where they weren't treated with grace. Valero does a fantastic job of both depicting the time period and these issues.

Velero's Art is gorgeous more then once I was left in awe.
This is by far the first comic I can think of where it felt like every panel came from a female gaze and it was honestly refreshing. To have scenes that I know would have full frontal nudity in something else, not too. It was amazing.

The one thing I disliked about this book, was the incestual romantic relationship between Lenoir and his cousin.
