Review Fagin el judio (Fagin the Jew, Spanish Edition) / Public Square Books:From the Father of the Graphic Novel. Fagin the Jewrecasts Oliver Twist from the perspective of Fagin. Eisner's fresh, compelling look at prejudice, poverty, and anti-Semitism portrays the notorious villain as a complex and troubled antihero and gives him the opportunity to tell his tale in his own words. Depicting Fagin's choices and actions within a historical context, Eisner captures the details of life in London's Ashkenazi community and brilliantly re-creates the social milieu of Dickensian England. Strongly recommended -Library Journal The Leonardo of the comic book form -Civilization.
