God of War. Genius. Light This is who I definitely am not, as those around me keep repeating. I have to admit: I'm weird. I don’t think so myself, but others do. Summer 1965. Schell runs away from the gas station house where he has lived since birth. He wants to become a man. After all, on the plateau hanging over the Assy valley, nothing heroic happens; only silence and the aromas of herbs reign here. Suddenly, as if out of nowhere, a girl with purple eyes appears. With her, the black and white world becomes colorful. In-universe, Vivian Schell no longer feels different. He unquestioningly obeys her, his queen, not noticing where this devotion leads. “My Queen” is an ode to youth, love and freedom. The heroes of Jean-Baptiste Andrea are looking for harmony in a world where everything is turned upside down, and the author gives us a chance to find it with them.
