About Hubert Books
Hubert was born in 1971 in Saint-Renan, Finistère, and was originally a colorist for many popular French comics. Later, he became a scriptwriter and reached success with his work Miss Pas Touche (2006). He was prolific and worked in both comedic and dramatic veins, writing on subjects like anorexia and queer identity. He wrote Beauty (2011), a medieval fantasy about a woman cursed with beauty by a fairy, which won a selection prize at Angouleme in 2012. His previous work with Virginie Augustin, Monsieur Desire? (2017) won the Prix Diagonale. He passed away in February 2020, just prior to the publication of his work A Man's Skin (2020).
