Rendered in vivid watercolour where parquet floors and patterned dresses morph together,The Wrong Place revolves around oft-absent Robbie,a charismatic lothario of mysterious celebrity who has the run of a city as chaotic as it is resplendent. Robbie's sexual energy captivates the attention of men and women alike; his literal and figurative brightness is a startling foil to the dreariness of his childhood friend,Francis. With a hand as sensitive as it is exuberant,Angoul锚me-winner Brecht Evens's first English graphic novel captures the strange chemistry of social interaction. The Wrong Place contrasts life as it is,angst-ridden and awkward,with life as it can be: spontaneous,uninhibited,and free.
