Nominated for three 2010 Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards: From Creation to the death of Joseph, here are all 50 chapters of the Book of Genesis, revealingly illustrated as never before.
Envisioning the first book of the bible like no one before him, R. Crumb, the legendary illustrator, reveals here the story of Genesis in a profoundly honest and deeply moving way. Originally thinking that we would do a take off of Adam and Eve, Crumb became so fascinated by the Bible’s language, “a text so great and so strange that it lends itself readily to graphic depictions,” that he decided instead to do a literal interpretation using the text word for word in a version primarily assembled from the translations of Robert Alter and the King James bible."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. If you are of a certain age and remember the 60's and 70's like I do and if you owned a "head" shop during that time, you know R. Crumb, the creator of Zap comics, The fabulous Furry Freak Brother, Mr. Natural and so many more iconic comics. The Book of Genesis illustrated by Crumb, all 50 chapters. The illustrations are Crumb at his finest the words are His words. I am not a bible reader, but I believe that the text is the same as you would find in your Gideon Bible.
