The Book of Genesis by ROBERT CRUMBS6/30/2023 ![]() ![]() The volume starts with the story of creation and how God created the heavens and the cosmos from nothing. All fifty chapters of the original Book of Genesis are replicated here. In Crumb's own words, his images "faithfully reproduced every word of the original text." By providing an unvarnished and truthful display free of interpretation or commentary, Crumb brings to visual life all of the complexities and contradictions of Genesis, its eccentricities and beauties, its family sagas and love stories, its light and its darkness. Unlike much of Crumb's previous work, which borders on the subversive and satirical, his presentation of Genesis is a straightforward retelling of the various stories that comprise this foundational Christian writing. The Book of Genesis (2009) is a comic book rendering of the first book of the Bible, illustrated by legendary American cartoonist Robert Crumb. ![]()
