The Professor's Daughter

a graphic novel
by Joann Sfar and Emmanuel Guibert
Translated by Alexis Siegel
64 pages, Carver County Library

This was bizarre. The plot is similar to the movie "The Mummy.' A beautiful Victorian gal "wakes up" Imhotep IV while helping her father, a professor of Egyptology. Basically, it's a romance / murder mystery / ??? I don't know what. Very odd book. She marries and has children with a 3,000-year old mummy whose father (Imhotep III) has killed her own father. Weird.
