The graphic novel is the most exciting literary and artistic form
to emerge during the past thirty years. One of the most inspired
uses of this new form has been the creation of high-quality
adaptations of literary classics. Unlike the previous abridged and
simplified comic book adaptations which were aimed at younger
readers, most new graphic novel adaptations are created for adults,
and can capture the subtlety and complexity of any literary work,
no matter how sophisticated. The expert contributors to this
book--the first and the only volume to be exclusively devoted to
graphic novel adaptations of literary works--demonstrate how the
graphic novel brings a new way of seeing and understanding the
classics, including the writings of Homer, Poe, Flaubert, Conrad
and Kafka, among many others. High school and college students and
teachers will find these essays exciting, informative, and useful.
