A Comme Eiffel (FR)

Book written in french.

Discover A comme Eiffel, a fascinating comic book scripted by Martin Trystram and illustrated by Xavier Coste, which reveals the lesser-known facets of Gustave Eiffel. Although famous for such monumental achievements as the Eiffel Tower, the structure of the Statue of Liberty and the Panama Canal, the man behind these feats remains a mystery.

This work explores the engineer's private life, revealing his paradoxes: an enthusiast for magnetism, a visitor to Victor Hugo's literary circles and an active member of Freemasonry. The book sheds light on his intimate relationships, particularly with the important women in his life: his mother, his daughter, and above all his cousin Alice. This hidden and intense relationship, which could have inspired the famous Tower by its initial, reveals a Gustave Eiffel quite different from the rigid image of the inflexible worker.

With A comme Eiffel, immerse yourself in a blend of historical reality and romantic fiction, and discover a complex man who, having risen to fame, still lives in our imagination in the shadow of his iconic work.
