Review: رسم القصه رهيببببببببببب و القصه حلوه و دموية Review: Beautiful Darkness begins with a bunch of adorable fairy-like creatures crawling out of the corpse of a young girl, which is lying on a forest floor. We don’t know what happened to the girl – murder? Freak accident? Heart attack? – but it doesn’t matter, because the girl’s corpse is just part the setting; the story belongs to the fairies, who are woefully unprepared for surviving in the material world. Most of the little fairies don’t seem to have much personality or emotional depth, to the point that they seem indifferent to each other’s deaths (and those deaths happen frequently). In most books that would be a flaw, but in Beautiful Darkness it seems intentional. My interpretation – and this is only my interpretation, the book would easily support other readings – the fairies are the characters from the stories the dead girl made up to tell herself, somehow able to escape into the real world upon the girl’s death. A few of the characters were major protagonists or villains, and those characters have more personality; in particular, the main character, Aurora, goes through amazing development and changes as the story goes on. Most of the other fairies were just simple background characters, and act like it. beautiful_pg28(About that name, “Aurora”: Early in the book, we see that the dead girl had a notebook with “Aurora” handwritten on the cover; I interpret this as meaning that this was the book the girl wrote stories about Aurora in, but I’ve seen other people suggest that the girl’s name was Aurora, and that the fairy Aurora is named that because represents the girls idealized self-image. Another possibility is that Aurora the fairy just named herself after the notebook.) This book is brutal, ambiguous, incredibly original, and stuck with me a long time after reading it. The artwork is excellent; Kerascoet (a pen name for a married pair of cartoonists, Marie Pommepuy and Sebastien Cosset) switches between a loose, airy cartoon style for the fairy-like creatures and impressive fully-painted realism for the big humans. (I’d find that sort of fully-painted realism heavy-handed and oppressive for a full comic, but here – used in brief passages interspersed throughout the book – it’s very effective at making the humans seem alien and often a bit threatening, and also quite beautiful to look at). ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #49,613 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,607 in Comics & Graphic Novels for Young Adults #2,126 in Comic Books & Graphic Novels | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (658) | | Dimensions | 16.89 x 0.89 x 22.23 cm | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 1770463364 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1770463363 | | Item weight | 1.05 Kilograms | | Language | English | | Print length | 120 pages | | Publication date | 30 October 2018 | | Publisher | Drawn and Quarterly | | Reading age | 14 years and up | ## Images ![Beautiful Darkness - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/911pnNPxMSL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by ،***، on 21 January 2026* رسم القصه رهيببببببببببب و القصه حلوه و دموية ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***H on 7 February 2016* Beautiful Darkness begins with a bunch of adorable fairy-like creatures crawling out of the corpse of a young girl, which is lying on a forest floor.
