Author: Catel & Bocquet
This book is based on the life of a real person. (As you can see in the above image, the photo to the right is the REAL Kiki, also known as Alice Prin. She was a lively woman, who happened to live a life full of art, prostitution, cocaine, and DADA. She seemed to enjoy herself thoroughly and to have lived at the edge of her seat in an "I do what I want" fashion.
There are no real words to describe how she was, though this comic does an excellent job of portraying her in a proper timeline. She had not the best of morals, but she isn't painted in a bad light. More of that she had a joy of life that let her go seamlessly about her way.
I was surprised at the end of the book to find that she was a real person. (Though the artists mentioned throughout I already knew to be real.)
