Overview
Etienne, author of an autobiographical comic strip, unashamedly, but with a great deal of humor, recounts his lack of suitability for life in society. If we had to draw up a composite portrait of the Western male who is incapable of committing himself to an affective relationship, egocentric, stingy and sex-obsessed, the resulting image would undoubtedly bear a strong resemblance to Etienne.
