Fagin the Jew

Eisner, Will, author, illustrator.
Graphic Novel 2013

A reinvention of the Dickens character, beginning with Fagin's hapless childhood in the slums of London and his initiation into the criminal underworld, counters the anti-Semitism of Victorian-era literature with a portrait of a man unfairly victimized by prejudice and poverty.
