"Waterloo & Trafalgar ( public library ) by French illustrator extraordinaire Olivier Tallec , also from my ceaselessly wonderful neighbor Enchanted Lion Books , is a thoughtful, minimalist Cold War allegory that tells the story of two characters who watch each other observantly through the seasons across the narrow walls that separate them."
