Description

A haunting and darkly funny post-apocalyptic graphic novel that follows an unusual postal worker on his very bizarre mail route.


Amid the blasted rubble of a once-perfect suburb, a hazmat-suited postman delivers the mail, aloud.

He shouts his letters down a vent to the bunker-bound family below.

They describe the family's prosperous past life, and then get stranger and stranger...

Drawn by the famed cartoonish and Charlie Hebdo contributor Gébé, and never before available in English, Letter to Survivors is a blackhearted delight, a scathing, impassioned send-up of consumerist excess and nuclear peril: funnier—and scarier—than ever.

About the Author

Born in 1966 in Ghulja in the Xinjiang region, GULBAHAR HAITIWAJI was an executive in the Chinese oil industry before leaving for France in 2006 with her husband and chil dren, who obtained the status of political refugees. In 2017 she was summoned to China for an admin-istrative issue. Once there, she was arrested and spent three years in “reeducation” camps. Thanks to the efforts of her family and the French foreign ministry, she was freed and was able to return to France, where she currently resides.

ROZENN MORGAT is a journalist at Le Figaro and a specialist reporting on the Uyghurs. Working directly with Haitiwaji, she gathered together her account of her experiences in Xinjiang, and together they turned Haitiwaji’s story into this book.
