This first graphic novel in the world, revolving around four stories set in a boarding house at 55 Dropsie Avenue in the Bronx, New York City, is a historical document. Published in 1978, Will Eisner’s immortal narrative explores the complexities of sorrowful urban life, relationships, sexuality, lies, and hopes and aspirations. It unequivocally demonstrates that comics are not just for children, but a powerful medium for telling the deepest stories of human life, through tales like that of the transformed man, Freim Hersh, the lament of a New York street singer, the sex life of a boarding house superintendent, or the intricate relationships of a group of people on vacation. Translated by Charbak Dipto, this graphic novel, a milestone in American and world comics, is therefore a must-read for every Bengali comics enthusiast.
