A delightful slice of life view into the lives of the occupants of a regular three-story apartment block. Claire and Louis are the 20-somethings on the top floor. Below them live Fabienne and Jacky with the monstrous, but lovable, Gypsy. Finally there is Beatrice, the single, pregnant mother of Remi. Their interactions unfold before the reader in episodic form; from the opening chapter of Claire's period pains, through the usual Sunday for everyone to the birth of Beatrice's daughter, Charline. Vanyda, a young French / Laotian art student, brilliantly adapts the design and story codes from manga and cooks them up in a French sauce to serve up her own particular brand of [i]Nouvelle Manga[/i].

A pregnant single mother lives on the second floor of the building opposite. A middle-aged couple lives on the third floor. And on the fourth are two young lovers, Claire and Louis. A building like so many others, where people cross on the stairs, are good neighbours and each have their own story - romantic or painful. As with some mangas, the stories concern everyday life but, in this case they occur closer to home. Everything is treated with such graciousness that we comprehend almost immediately that which is only a suggestion.' - Jean David Moran'
