Florence Dupré la Tour's autobiographical masterwork comes to a close with Separated, the second volume of Twin. Her relationship with her twin sister—the greatest love of her life—starts to fall apart as they enter adolescence. Without the "we" of her early life, Florence must learn to confront life alone, from multiple intercontinental moves to the confusion of her blossoming sexuality. Dupré la Tour's finesse with watercolors and inks shows the power of humor and the freedom won through fierce liberation.

About the author
Tour la Dupré Florence
Florence Dupré was born in Buenos Aires in 1978, and spent part of her childhood in Champagne, then in Guadeloupe before landing in Lyon, where she studied drawing. She began her career in animation by working on the series "Petit Vampire" before turning to the comic book form. She has published with the major publishing houses including Gallimard ("Capuchin," "Borgnol," "La sorcière du placard aux balais"), Ankama ("Cigish ou le maître du Je"), Mauvaise Foi ("Carnage"), and Dargaud ("Cruelle", "Pucelle"). After experimenting with other genres such as fiction, children's literature, and performance, she now works full-time on her autobiographical series, of which "Cruelle", "Pucelle", and now "Jumelle" are a part.
