The interesting thing will be if, stripped of the text, the images create the same narrative as the original book does; has Zak created an adaptation or a translation? My guess (again) is that it's the latter.thekelvingreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928260185408072124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-45889334474668993262010-07-20T18:31:41.676-05:002010-07-20T18:31:41.676-05:00A graphic novelisation of Emma Goldmann's life...A graphic novelisation of Emma Goldmann's life?!

I recall some really graphic, crazy scenes in that novel ... Not to be too much a spoiler, but it's the completely twisted sex scenes that really set the tone of desperation in pynchon's war epic ... If zak has managed to match that with visuals, you are probably lined up for some erotic PTSD.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-60739106948584818462010-07-18T16:27:35.486-05:002010-07-18T16:27:35.486-05:00Synchronicity, man.
