The Complete Crepax: Dangerous Liasons by Guido Crepax
The Venus in Furs, Casanova, and Milanese photographer Valentina embark on erotic adventures in this collection of classic Italian comics. In this Italian erotic comics collection, which spans 1977-1989, the character Valentina, a music, art, and fashion-loving Milanese photographer, ages in 'real time.' First, she saves Effi, a German heiress, from kidnappers, and they become lovers. Valentina also has an affair with Bruno, a young cellist. Dangerous Liaisons follows our heroine into middle-aged home life with her longtime partner, Phil, with whom she has a grown son, Mattia. Two of Crepax's lauded graphic adaptations: 'Venus in Furs' and 'The Memoirs of Casanova' are featured in this volume.Guido Crepax was born in 1933 in Milan, Italy. He worked on award-winning advertising campaigns for Shell and Dunlop after graduating with a degree in architecture. He went on to become one of the most influential cartoonists in Italy, most known for his hallucinogenic and sensual Valentina adventures. Her exploits have been made into a TV show and a film. In 2003, he passed away.
