Garden of the Flesh
As only the unfettered Id of Gilbert Hernandez could conceive, Garden of the Flesh is a sexually explicit retelling of the story of Adam and Eve up to Noah's Ark. Hernandez presents a straightforward adaptation of the Bible parable, but one that also blurs the lines between erotica and pornography, as only Hernandez can.

Hernandez, Gilbert: - Gilbert Hernandez was born in 1957 in Oxnard, California, and is considered one of the greatest living comics writer-artists in the world. In 1982, Hernandez co-created, along with his brothers Mario and Jaime, the ongoing, iconic, internationally acclaimed comic book series Love and Rockets, one of the greatest bodies of work the medium has ever seen. In addition to his work on Love and Rockets, its spinoffs, and side series, Hernandez has released a prodigious amount of original graphic novels and miniseries, such as Sloth, Bumperhead, and Marble Season. He also collaborated with Darwyn Cooke on The Twilight Children for DC. He was inducted into the Will Eisner Hall of Fame in 2017 and is the recipient of a Fellow Award from United States Artists and a PEN Center USA's Graphic Literature Award for Outstanding Body of Work. Hernandez lives in Ventura, CA, with his wife and daughter.
Praise for this book
Gilbert Hernandez continues his seemingly effortless mission to be one of comics' most difficult to categorize creators with this new graphic novel. After the magic-realist social history of his Love & Rockets material and the supernatural thriller The Twilight Children, where else should he go but a sexually explicit retelling of the Bible from Adam and Eve up through Noah's Ark? Expect explorations of the Good Book that you'd never find in Sunday School, as Hernandez finds new space to talk about subjects and stories many grew up with.-- "WIRED"
