"Three Blows... to the Stomach" is most like a blog that you keep for yourself, — without edits and self-censorship. Blaze is consumed by anger, rage, something stronger than himself: "Dy-dy-dysh!" — and... he gets expelled from college. But that’s not enough — he needs to find someone who will take responsibility for everything: for the feeling of injustice that suffocates him every day.

"Pitiful Personality" is an autobiographical love story. A text of forgiveness and a text of farewell? The author's illustrations help us immerse ourselves in the world of blues, where Pierre lives not because there is no other way out, but because he has decided so. What Pierre really wants is to travel: to leave as far away as possible from this home and from his father, who is always drunk — so familiar and unbearable. Farther away from school, where... it seems like they want to help him, but only make things worse.
