Megillat Esther: The Graph­ic Tale

  • From the Publisher
February 23, 2024

The mag­is­te­r­i­al graph­ic nov­el of the Book of Esther, now back in an enhanced edition.

For more than twen­ty years, JT Waldman’s Megillat Esther has remained the gold stan­dard for what an illus­trat­ed book of the Bible can be. Long out of print, this new full-col­or edi­tion enhances the black-and-white orig­i­nal and brings Waldman’s vision to a new gen­er­a­tion of readers.

Across more than 150 gor­geous pages, Wald­man brings the sto­ry of Purim to life in illus­tra­tions that will impress kids and adults alike. At turns provoca­tive and mys­te­ri­ous, Megillat Esther brings emo­tion­al bril­liance to this age-old sto­ry, inter­spers­ing its nar­ra­tive with a hid­den back­sto­ry. Nev­er before or since has a book of the Bible been illus­trat­ed with such grandeur and beau­ty. This expand­ed edi­tion adds new lay­ers of delight and depth to each and every page.

Megillat Esther: The Graph­ic Tale is pub­lished by Print-O-Craft and is dis­trib­uted by Ayin Press.
