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

A revolutionary novel, A Contract with God re-creates the neighbourhood of Will Eisner's youth through a quartet of four interwoven stories. Expressing the joy, exuberance, tragedy, and drama of life on the mythical Dropsie Avenue of the Bronx, A Contract with God is a monumental achievement, a must in the library of any graphic novel fan.
