Rarely has an author demonstrated such an exceptional contribution to the influence of Quebec culture in the last decade as Michel Rabagliati. His autobiographical comic book series, Paul, which began in 1999 and now has 10 volumes, paints a vast portrait of Montreal’s identity through its values, its language and its territory. Translated into seven languages and awarded numerous prizes both in Canada and abroad, his albums have definitely put Quebec’s 9th art on the international scene. In 2022, he won the Prix Athanase-David des Prix du Québec.
