From Hell

The book is great.Arrived a few days earlier than scheduled. Except the cover at the back had been ripped off a bit on the top.

Loved the movie, but this is so much better.

libro bellissimo consigliato uno dei migliori fumetti di sempre. disegni imperdibili. storia affascinante. un vero capolavoro da avere in tutte le librerie.

What do i say about this classic. Right from the art to the plot, everything feels so.......classic.!!! Have it in paperback and works just fine for me as it was my first read. Would surely want to upgrade but this masterpiece is quite hard to find.!

One of the must haves of graphical novels, a masterpiece of story telling and imagery. This is a very well put together edition, that I'm happy to have on my shelf.

"Our lunatic were prophets once, and had a prophet's power" 'From Hell' is a Historical Fiction that is beautifully crafted and smartly constructed, it manages to sell to the reader this story of who was 'Jack the Ripper', and yet - thanks to the amazing Appendix - it manages to make clear what is Fact and what is Fiction, meaning one can at the same time be immersed in this sea of fiction without loosing the sight of the shore of the reality known and documented. The first Appendix of this book is fundamental for the understanding of the Whitechapel Murders, being a great support for the book as a whole, I personally recommend reading this whilst reading the book itself. The second Appendix on the other hand may be better for after you finish the book, once it takes you back from the sea of speculative fiction and the idea presented by Moore of who is 'Jack the Ripper', being a great reminder of the actual known truth presented by the facts, and the less credible evidence presented by rumors. The book itself amazed me. The atmosphere is great (although a bit too graphic for my taste, as an asexual I could have gone without the explicit sex scenes, and yes I know I should have expected them ok). The thing it makes the story even more disturbing is how it is drawn, the sketchy black and white style makes you pay more attention to some certain scenes that I am sure no one wants to look at much. When it comes to the events and characters, lets just say that is classic Alan Moore. Being V for Vendetta, Watchmen, The Killing Joke or From Hell, there is always a completely unhinged character with some ~interesting~ ideas to say the least. In this instance we have a combination of a bit of history with a bit of philosophy and a lot of crazy theories, making 'From Hell' perfect for the curious souls out there who love history, ~unusual~ theories, and more than bit of gore
