The Enemy - Davide Cali / Serge Bloch
Challenging the traditional notion of what a picture book is and who it is for is this stark, poignant book … [which] boldly explores the futility of war.‘ The Sunday Age
‘Impressive … the award-winning team of Cali and Bloch seems set for further recognition … Highly recommended.’ Magpies
This is the year’s most extraordinary illustrated book. Already a major hit in France, The Enemy is a profound, moving and poignant fable for our time about two lonely soldiers facing each other across a barren desert battlefield. Are they the only soldiers left? How can they end the war? Just who is the enemy?
Created by Davide Cali and Serge Bloch, the award-winning team behind I Can’t Wait (winner of France’s prestigious Baobab Award, and Honour Book in the American Library Association’s Batchelder Award) and I Love Kissing You.
Published in association with Amnesty International Australia
