Beskrivelse
In 1934, Art Young, the preeminent American political cartoonist in the twentieth century, wrote and drew his satirical interpretation of Gustave Dore»s version of Dante»s Inferno and created a searing indictment of capitalism. Everything in the new Hell is privatised and operated by a corporate monopoly – maximising profits and misery. Each page of Young»s art is reproduced here in full colour, and the includes a new introduction by Steven Heller, a foreword by editor Glenn Bray, and the original 1934 essays by Young himself and his »friend, admirer and attorney» Charles Recht.
