Let There Be Light (2022) is Liana Finck’s graphic novel retelling of the Book of Genesis. Rather than a straightforward adaptation, Finck filters the ancient stories through her own perspective, bringing her characteristic humor and emotional honesty to some of the oldest narratives in Western literature.
The book covers the familiar stories from Creation through Joseph in Egypt, but Finck pays particular attention to the female characters who are often sidelined in traditional readings. Eve, Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah all get fuller treatment here. The result is a book that works both as a fresh way into well-known stories and as a piece of visual art in its own right.
