DESCRIPTION

(A minor redesign of an old drawing : Tomber de Charybde en Scylla)

"Tomber de Charybde en Scylla" (To fall from Charybdis into Scylla) is a French expression originating from the adventures of Ulysses. During his journey, he must sail near the fearsome whirlpool of Charybdis but chooses to avoid it by steering toward the monstrous Scylla.
This expression is used when someone tries to escape one danger only to fall into another, equally threatening.
And you, what would you choose? Would you face Charybdis or Scylla?
