Staff Reviews

In a profoundly iconoclastic reimagining of the apocryphal Harrowing myth, Dahm portrays Jesus the human: troubled, complex, a profound iconoclast. Though I wasn't raised Christian and never believed, this story helped me see what Christ's followers might have seen in him two millennia ago: his anarchism, his idealism, his radical kindness.

— Graham

Description

A modern reinterpretation of the apocryphal tale of Christ's descent into Hell after his death, THE HARROWING OF HELL is a densely illustrated allegorical tale of the world's most famous political revolutionary.
