He is also the author and illustrator of Aâma, a science-fiction series released in four parts between March 2014, and September 2015. The Comics Bulletin Shyamalan adapted his disquieting tale from the graphic novel Sandcastle, by the French writer Pierre Oscar Lvy and the Swiss illustrator Frederik Peeters. Sandcastle, like most Twilight Zone episodes, is heavily plot driven. Subsequently, in 2010 the two collaborated on a science fiction graphic novel, available in English in 2011 as Sandcastle. Peeters and Lvy convey some profound, if profoundly unsubtle, truths about the human condition. Sandcastle is no different, and by collapsing those decades and years and months and days and hours of potential meditation into the span of a day or less, authors Frederik Peeters and Pierre Oscar Lvy force the issue rather neatly. He has worked with documentary film-maker Pierre Oscar Lévy on an adaptation of Blue Pills for that medium. Other graphic novels include Pachyderme (nominated for the Grand Prix at the Angoulême International Comics Festival 2010), Lupus, RG, and Koma. This is his first work to be translated into English. Blue Pills also won the Premios La Cárcel de Papel in Spain for Best Foreign Comic. His autobiographical graphic novel Blue Pills received the Polish Jury Prize at the Angoulême International Comics Festival, where it was also nominated for Best Book. Peeters currently lives with his partner Cati, her son, and their daughter in Geneva. Peeters received his bachelor of arts degree in visual communication from the École Supérieure d’Arts Appliqués in Geneva in 1995. Frédérik Peeters ( French: born 14 August 1974 in Geneva) is a contemporary Swiss graphic novelist.
