Splitter Verlag Crepax: Geschichte der O: Nach dem Roman von Pauline Réage

"Geschichte der O" by Pauline Réage is the scandal book par excellence: the chronology of the enslavement of a woman out of her own desire raises questions today, 70 years after its first publication, questions about the relationship of love and submission, of freedom and hearing, of enthusiasm and coercion. The titular O and her training as the ideal Sadomaso sub and the real possession of her master is stirring and completely tabooless. Described by many as dangerous excess pornography, others see in this work a prime example of sophisticated erotic literature. Guido Crepax makes the novel accustomed virtuosic by presenting a faithful adaptation that is faithful but unequally intense thanks to his drawing art - excessive, beguiling and extreme. Filmical compositions, subtle black and white stroke and explicit, not to say extreme themes: the Italian comic artist Guido Crepax (1933-2003) is today internationally one of the canonized classics of comics and is not only appreciated in the expert world as one of the most important precursors of the graphic novel. His main works published in the 1960s and 1970s revolutionized the visual language of the medium and inspired countless comic artists worldwide. Crepax fascinates and polarises. This applies to both his numerous adaptations of literary classics and his erotic works. Splitter edits a selection of his comics in high-quality equipment, new translation and with exclusive covers for the German-speaking market. This book is "Splitternackt" - an erotic comic for adults!
