In Pucker Art Publications' twelfth book on the art of Samuel Bak, the artist collaborates with Lawrence L. Langer to explore the book of Genesis, the search for identity, and that first couple: Adam and Eve. Bak's 120 paintings depicting the couple as travelers, Renaissance-era and twentieth-century lost souls, are rich in symbolism, posing questions of good and evil and of how we are to repair the world. Langer effectively and intelligently analyzes and provides insight into the paintings' meanings and allusions.
