Augusta State University’s Reese Library will explore graphic novels and Jewish literature in a five-part discussion series entitled Jewish Literature – Identity and Imagination.

The first discussion will be A Contract with God by Will Eisner on Monday, Sept. 8, at 6:30 p.m. in Reese Library.

Mr. Eisner, the son of Jewish immigrants, has also been credited with bringing adult-oriented novel-length comics to a wider audience. Read the full story
