The Professor's Daughter
Written by Joan Sfar
Art by Emmanuel Guibert
Translated by Alexis Siegel
A Victorian Era fairy tale. Mummified Pharoah Imhotep IV goes out for the day on London town with Lilian, the daughter of Egyptologist Professor Bowell. And as the two explore their feelings for one another they must cope with accidental murders, dissaproving fathers and stern Victorian justice...
Sfar's wonderfully written dialogue and Guibert's gorgeous inks will help you believe in the love of a centuries dead Pharoah and a proper young English woman...
