Graphic Witness

I came across this while browsing the graphic novel section at the local library. It includes work by 4 artists frans masereel,Lynd Ward,Gicomo Patri and Laurence Hyde. What was impressive about this novel was the way all those novels were written. First of all the stories were conveyed using pictures only. So there wasn't any balloon text. All 4 stories were set in early 1900-1950s. All 4 meloncholy stories exploring topics like urban sprawl, racism, atomic bomb explosion etc.
