Reviews
"All good stories conjure up images in our minds' eyes. But what happens when a story is told only with pictures? For the Belgian-born graphic artist Frans Masereel, the answer was simple: it is not words but ideas that open our minds' endless collection of thoughts and images.... Masereel who died in France in the early 1970s, instilled in these quirky and often bizarre stories a passionate sense of both the value and the inherent miseries of human existence. Evoking broad philosophical questions, they go far beyond the task of telling a good story. And that, above all, is their strength."-Dan Tranberg,The Plain Dealer.

Synopsis
These two novels-without-words feature evocative woodcuts that encourage the reader's own imagination to create the story line. Created in the 1920s by the acclaimed wood-engraver Frans Masereel, this unique book contains two picture-novels in one. Flip The Idea upside down, and you can look through Story Without Words. The images in The Idea depict the progress of an idea, in the mysterious form of a woman spirit, as it moves through the world. Story Without Words is a haunting love story rich with symbolism.
