<div>Julie Maroh burst onto the scene in 2013 with <I>Blue Is the Warmest Color</I>, a tender, bittersweet graphic novel about lesbian love, in which a young woman named Clementine becomes infatuated with Emma, a girl with blue hair. The book spawned a controversial and acclaimed feature film that won the Palme d'Or at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival as well as accolades for its stars Adÿle Exarchopoulos and Lea Seydoux; the book itself is a <I>New York Times</I> bestseller and received starred reviews from <I>Publishers Weekly</I> and <I>Library Journal</I>.<BR><BR>Julie's follow-up graphic novel, <I>Skandalon</I>, marks a startling change of pace: a fiery, intense story about the recklessness of fame. "Skandalon," found in the Gospels, refers to a persistent trap or obstacle, such as the one that confounds the mesmerizing, Jim Morrison-like lead character Tazane. He is a true rock icon: passionate, arrogant, selfish, and sometimes violent, the charismatic singer is a beacon for controversy and scandal. But the public that worships him and the media that lavishes attention on him are waiting for him to fall from grace. At times shocking, <I>Skandalon</I> is a powerful and relentless meditation on the high cost of fame, and the demons awaiting anyone who refuses to be wary of them.<BR><BR><B>Julie Maroh</B> is an author and illustrator originally from northern France. She studied comic art at the Institute Saint-Luc in Brussels and lithography and engraving at the Royal Academy of Arts in Brussels.<BR></div>
