Klappentext zu „Dante's Divine Comedy “
A revolutionary of visual culture, Seymour Chwast is one of the most influential illustrators of the last half century. In his version of Dante's Divine Comedy, Dante and his guide Virgil don fedoras and wander through noir-ish realms of Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise in this classic satire of human foibles. Humorous, ironic, political, and utterly unique, this Divine Comedy is a comics masterpiece.

Rezension zu „Dante's Divine Comedy “
'Dante + Seymour = Heaven' Maira Kalman, author of The Principles of Uncertainty 'Seymour's take on this timeless classic is not only charming and clever, it is so cannily rendered that it makes Dante's complex masterwork easily understood for any reader. Divine' Chip Kidd, author of The Cheese Monkeys 'I have to say, seen through Seymour Chwast's eyes, Hell doesn't look so bad. I'm almost looking forward to floating in pools of excrement or being tossed about carelessly by furious winds. Seymour Chwast has put the comedy back into the divine in this fiendishly heavenly extravaganza' Marian Bantjes, graphic artist 'Seymour Chwast! Oh, how I hate him! He's already the top artist! He's already the top designer! Now he's gonna be the top graphic novelist! Seymour Chwast can go to Hell!' Craig Yoe, author of The Art of Steve Ditko
