A few weeks after seeing the film of the same name, I discovered the book on which it is based in our public library. This Spanish edition includes the first and second books that were originally published in French as separate volumes.
I enjoyed the animation but I liked the book’s black-and-white pencil drawings more. In any case, these are two completely different works of art. For example, the period of Jung’s stay with Father Pierre is developed much more in the movie compared with the book. On the other hand, the story of relationship with his pen-pal Sylvie is absent from the film altogether.
