A CONTRACT FOR GOD --

Comic books aren’t just for kids.

It's fair to say that Will Eisner (The Spirit) invented modern comic art. A Contract with God has been called the first graphic novel, and its divergence from traditional comics themes and forms highlights Eisner's foresight and brilliance. Dealing with stories and memories from his childhood in a Bronx tenement, he explores the brutality, fragility, and tenderness possible among people living in close quarters close to the poverty line. Ending reflectively (and perhaps autobiographically), A Contract with God shows us a young man peering out into his city as he decides whether and how to face adulthood.
--Rob Lightner


"Eisner was not only ahead of his times; the present times are still catching up to him."
—John Updike
