An Inspector Calls The Graphic Novel: Original Text

Adaptat de Jason Cobley Ilustrat de Will Volley, Alejandro Sanchez, Jim Campbell Editat de Clive Bryant
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 aug 2012 – vârsta de la 11 ani
"So – for God's sake – don't say anything to the inspector."

A respectable household is shocked when a strange police inspector visits them shortly after dinner... and proceeds to unravel their prejudices and lies. Through this almost surreal murder-mystery, Priestley interweaves social comment with a gripping story that twists and turns every few pages.

True to the original vision of the author and featuring beautiful engaging artwork, the book features the entire play, unabridged (in the original British English), as well as an illustrated Character List (Dramatis Personae), 132 pages of story artwork, and fascinating support material that details the life and work of J.B. Priestley - all beautifully presented in color.

An alternative text edition with simplified US dialogue is also available enabling differentiation in the classroom.

Extras

Gerald
I’m sorry, Sheila. But it was all over and done with, last summer. I hadn’t set eyes on the girl for at least six months. I don’t come into this suicide business.

Sheila
I thought I didn’t, half an hour ago.

Gerald
You don’t. Neither of us does. So – for God’s sake – don’t say anything to the inspector.

Sheila
About you and this girl?

Gerald
Yes. We can keep it from him.

Sheila
Ha ha ha! Why – you fool – he knows.
Of course he knows. And I hate to think how much he knows that we don’t know yet.
You’ll see.
You’ll see.

Inspector
Well?
