Over dit product

Product Information

Launched on July 1, 1916, the Battle of the Somme has come to epitomize the madness of the First World War. Almost 20,000 British soldiers were killed and another 40,000 were wounded that first day, and there were more than one million casualties by the time the offensive halted. In The Great War, acclaimed cartoon journalist Joe Sacco depicts the events of that day in an extraordinary, 24-foot- long panorama: from General Douglas Haig and the massive artillery positions behind the trench lines to the legions of soldiers going "over the top" and getting cut down in no-man's-land, to the tens of thousands of wounded soldiers retreating and the dead being buried en masse. Printed on fine accordion-fold paper and packaged in a deluxe slipcase with a 16-page booklet, The Great War is a landmark in Sacco's illustrious career and allows us to see the War to End All Wars as we've never seen it before.

Reviews
Sacco's account of the opening of one of modern warfare's bloodiest campaigns has no real parallel.... [It] insinuates an intimacy with calamity that words do not convey., A searing depiction of a single day.... Exacting in every damning detail, magnificent in its tragic way., This is incredible. It is fantastic. He's showing you far more than a film or photographs could. It's just drawing--it's a superb example of what art can do., Insanely beautiful. This is yet another total masterpiece from one of the most important comic artists of all time., Show[s] what photos can't: the enormousness and the enormity of what happened that day on the Western Front., Joe Sacco is a genius. Easily one of the most important journalists, writers and cartoonists alive, every stroke of his assured and humblingly mature pen captures what the camera simply cannot. Through his reserved yet compassionate use of words and pictures, he allows us to occupy the horrifying inner and outer boundaries of human cruelty and desperation--yet all, I believe, with the aim of returning to what it means to be a civilized, sympathetic and possibly even forgiving soul., Awesome...His silence first mirrors and then amplifies our own horrified stupefaction--and his inky crosshatching speaks for itself, sorrow and rage in every dogged line., Epic [and] revelatory.... Unfurled, this condensed picture of the Western front is one of staggering grandeur and inescapable doom., Sacco at His Most Bombastic and Epic, As if His Publisher Had Given Him Steven Spielberg's Budget., The book depicts the first day of the battle of the Somme, as it's never been seen before...It's like a cross between Hergé and the Chapman brothers; the Bayeux Tapestry as a silent movie.
