Romanzo illustrato in italiano

Nella tradizione delle storie gotiche inglesi dell’Ottocento, tra mitologia celtica, occultismo e scienza, un romanzo illustrato che racconta lo scontro tra uomini e natura, tra realtà e sogno, tra la vita e la morte.

Dartmoor, Inghilterra, 1826. Il corpo di Edith Wilton, giovane donna dai lunghi capelli rossi, viene ritrovato senza vita sulla riva di un fiume, completamente avvolto da hedera helix o edera comune. A eseguire la sua autopsia è il dottor Charles Norland, un uomo di scienza tormentato dai ricordi della guerra anglo-nepalese, che si è da poco rifugiato nel Devonshire in cerca di pace. L’edera è ovunque, tra i capelli della ragazza, nei vestiti, fra le dita dei piedi, e la prima supposizione del medico è che si tratti di suicidio. Ma è solo l’ipotesi più logica di un mistero che ben presto perde ogni aspetto di razionalità e inizia a mietere nuove vittime. Chi era davvero Edith Wilton?

La ricerca della verità sulla morte della ragazza dell’edera si trasforma lentamente in un’ossessione, trascinando il dottor Norland in una realtà popolata da antichi riti celtici e da una natura potente e inquieta. Una realtà primordiale che sfugge alle regole dell’uomo, di cui il villaggio di Dartmoor sembra essere la porta e la giovane Edith Wilton la chiave.

Illustrated novel in Italian

In the tradition of 19th-century English Gothic stories, between Celtic mythology, the occult, and science, this illustrated novel tells of the clash between man and nature, reality and dream, life and death.

Dartmoor, England, 1826. The body of Edith Wilton, a young woman with long red hair, is found lifeless on the bank of a river, completely covered with Hedera helix or common ivy. Her autopsy is performed by Dr. Charles Norland, a scientist plagued by memories of the Anglo-Nepalese War who has fled to Devonshire in search of peace. Ivy is everywhere, in the girl’s hair, in her clothes, between her toes, and the doctor initially suspects it is suicide. But this is only the most logical hypothesis in a mystery that soon loses all rationality and claims new victims. Who was Edith Wilton really?

The search for the truth about the Ivy Girl’s death slowly becomes an obsession, drawing Dr. Norland into a reality populated by ancient Celtic rites and a powerful and restless nature. A primal reality that defies the rules of man, for which the village of Dartmoor seems to be the door and young Edith Wilton the key.

About BeccoGiallo
BeccoGiallo

BeccoGiallo is an Italian publishing house founded in 2005 and specialized in publishing comics.

Its name is a tribute to the courageous editorial experience of the anti-fascist satirical sheet “Il Becco Giallo”, which in the 1920s used drawing – together with written journalistic investigation – to criticize and incite the Power: its symbol was a blackbird, with its beak always open to shout the truths that were denied at that time.

BeccoGiallo now publishes about twenty titles a year, distributed in its different series, from Graphic Journalism to books designed for children, from biographies to fiction, up to the new world of Webcomics.

It also puts at the service of institutions and companies its decades of experience in editorial work, with the language of comics, for the design and development of dedicated tools for the dissemination of comics themes, research and initiatives in line with the philosophy of the publishing house.
