The Author of Favole Delights the Public
Spanish illustrator Victoria Francés, at just 22, has taken the publishing world by storm, and in the most difficult way: gaining audiences through her first public appearances.
Her first book in print, FAVOLE, published by Norma Editorial appeared on 23 April in Spain – National Book Day - but it wasn’t until 8 March at the 22nd International Comic Fair in Barcelona that she first faced the public.
Dressed in the same goth-inspired clothes worn by many of the characters in her illustrations, Victoria Francés was the star of the book signing sessions for two days of the fair, dedicating more than 100 books with small illustrations. Despite being rather nervous at first, the warmth of the public put her at her ease and she displayed great professionalism and charm, answering lots of questions and posing for photos taken by her new fans. It was interesting to see that FAVOLE appealed to a very broad public, male and female, from very different styles and backgrounds. It was certainly an unforgettable weekend for the author, who also managed to fulfil another of her dreams - to meet Luis Royo, one of her favourite illustrators.
Victoria Francés’ first two public appearances have been on the same level as the big established names, suggesting a great future for this young illustrator who is already working on the second book of the FAVOLE trilogy. During the rest of the year she will visit even bigger Spanish cities such as Madrid, and in 2005 she will make her first trip to the USA for Comic-Con International San Diego.

Easter is one of the most important Christian holidays. Resurrection of Jesus Christ forms the main theme of the Easter Holiday.Easter is celebrated to memorialize the resurrection of Jesus Christ from his death three days after he was crucified and tortured on Good Friday. It is a Christian holiday and falls in springtime, marking the end of the Lent season. Easter is one of the most important and holiest holidays in the Christian almanac. Chocolate bunnies, magnificent marshmallow chicks, lilies and brilliantly colored Easter eggs are closely associated with Easter. Most of the traditions and customs associated with Easter have their origin in the pagan traditions. Lent season is, in fact, forty-six-days long starting from Ash Wednesday and ending with Easter. The six Sundays falling under this period are not considered a part of Lent. Thus, though fasts are observed in this season, Sundays are excluded from the fast period as they are considered to be a commemoration of Easter Sunday.
From the religious point of view, this season is considered very significant. People prepare and sanitize themselves for the Holy Easter. The Holy Week, which is the last week of the Lent, opens with the celebration of Palm Sunday. This is called Palm Sunday because on this day Jesus Christ succeeded in entering Jerusalem, where people welcomed him by laying palms at his feet. This week consists of many important events that lead up to Easter. Holy Thursday is yet another important event, commemorating the Last Supper, where the Christ prophesized his end and his resurrection. It is followed by the Good Friday, which symbolizes the day of Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Finally the holy week ends with Easter Sunday with the resurrection of Jesus Christ which signifies the return of happiness, mercy and compassion into the world.
