Description
A graphic novel about a man of many faces. Which one is the true one? All of them, or none? A man of grand gestures and petty weaknesses. Entertaining, social, lonely, ambitious, misunderstood. A careerist, seducer, braggart, and Don Quixote. A story about the masks we wear and the (im)possibility of truly knowing one another. Milan Rastislav Štefánik (1880–1919) was a politician, general, astronomer, scientist, cosmopolitan, and above all, an adventurer. Perhaps the most original personality in modern Czechoslovak history. A few years after Štefánik's untimely death, sculptor Bohumil Kafka follows in his footsteps. He searches for who Štefánik really was – in the eyes of his family, friends, colleagues, and lovers. However, each encounter disrupts the established image of this personality, which Kafka should immortalize in a monumental monument.
