"Baloup is a master of making scenery come alive and placing his subjects within them..."

The drawing style differs from the first volume. Clean and expressive lines serve the story completely, and colors skillfully emphasize feelings: dark purple for the terrifying and painful memories of the past; whereas the present, with its more peaceful and hopeful evocations, is depicted in warmer terracotta and yellow shades.

Little Saigon is written with great restraint, subtlety, empathy, and tenderness towards these men and women seen here in their daily routine but whose journey remains unsuspected. Baloup draws wide open spaces and landscapes with ease, but excels even more at cityscapes. (transl. from the French - Olivia)
