The comic strip "Vous avez détruit la beauté du monde: Le suicide scénarisé au Québec depuis 1763" (French only) is among the three finalists for the Prix des Libraires du Québec in the category "Comics - Adult Quebec". The book is the result of a collaborative project by Isabelle Perreault (Associate Professor), André Cellard (Professor Emeritus) and Patrice Corriveau (Full Professor) with illustrator Christian Quesnel. On one hand, it is an artistic and literary project in due form and, on the other hand, an original practice of disseminating the results of historical research on the phenomenon of "scripted" suicide in Quebec history.

Congratulations and good luck with the award!
