A poignant account of an alcoholic father who drags his family into
misfortune, The Vagabond Valise is the heart-breaking autobiographical
story of Siris, represented by his chicken-headed alter ego. Siris
paints a sincere and poetic portrait of his troubled childhood, in and
out of foster homes, but also of the working-class, post-war Quebec
where it took place. Ten years in the making, The Vagabond Valise is the
first graphic novel from a founding father of the Quebec comix
underground.
