ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay" by Michael Chabon tells the story of cousins Joe Kavalier, an escape artist from Prague, and Sammy Clay, a budding writer in Brooklyn, who team up in the late 1930s to create a popular comic book superhero, the Escapist. Their collaboration takes them through the burgeoning world of comic books, reflecting themes of escape from personal and political turmoil, the pursuit of the American Dream, and the powerful role of imagination in a world on the brink of war. Their creative partnership and personal lives become deeply intertwined as they navigate the challenges and triumphs of their unique venture.
