Hawke initially wanted to make a movie on the Apache warrior Geronimo but was shot down by Hollywood executives. He then reimagined it as a graphic novel albeit with some minor changes ergo Indeh . Graphic novels due to their picturesque nature deliver quite a punch when crafted with the right dose of enigma and skill. This one however is rare because it weaves a historiographical nuance previously unseen. It wouldn't be amiss on a historian's bookshelf. An amazing recounting.

I felt that this medium of a graphic novel was so much better than a movie could be. Which, this is a "graphic" novel in all aspects. There is nothing pretty about war. I did feel like a part of the "true" history was exposed with this book. Having not been very familiar with the Apache Wars, I am more intrigued to learn more about this history. Indeh is a tabletop book and conversation piece (in a good way). (  ) Cherylk | Jul 10, 2017 | geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
The year is 1872. The place, the Apache nations, a region torn apart by decades of war. The people, like Goyahkla, lose his family and everything he loves. After having a vision, the young Goyahkla approaches the Apache leader Cochise, and the entire Apache nation, to lead an attack against the Mexican village of Azripe. It is this wild display of courage that transforms the young brave Goyakhla into the Native American hero Geronimo. But the war wages on. As they battle their enemies, lose loved ones, and desperately cling on to their land and culture, they would utter, "Indeh," or "the dead." When it looks like lasting peace has been reached, it seems like the war is over. Or is it? INDEH captures the deeply rich narrative of two nations at war--as told through the eyes of Naiches and Geronimo--who then try to find peace and forgiveness. INDEH not only paints a picture of some of the most magnificent characters in the history of our country, but it also reveals the spiritual and emotional cost of the Apache Wars. Based on exhaustive research, INDEH offers a remarkable glimpse into the raw themes of cultural differences, the horrors of war, the search for peace, and, ultimately, retribution. The Apache left an indelible mark on our perceptions about the American West, and INDEH shows us why. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Mais si l’idée est belle et séduisante, et si le rendu et les dessins monochromes sont magnifiques, l’histoire m’a semblé confuse.
Une bande dessinée avec des très belles planches et partant d’une belle intention, pour un rendu hélas un peu brouillon. Mais était-ce possible de raconter tout ça sur un seul album ? (
