In 1969, Claire Bretécher started at the Pilote magazine. This was where she created ‘Cellulite’, the not-quite-perfect princess, who, as her name would suggest, goes against all those doe-eyed, skinny-waisted female heroines that skip across the bookshelves and TV screens of the 21st century. But just one heroine wasn’t enough for Bretécher, so she invented ‘Seasonal Salads’, in which she works wonders of hilarious clear-sightedness. Masterpieces in their own right, the pages of these two side-splitters are at long last brought together in one indispensable volume.
