JUSTINE Part One & Part Two Crepax By Guido Crepax. Justine Part One & Part Two by Guido Crepax is an illustrated retelling of the Marquis de Sade classic. Justine tells the story of a penniless young girl cast adrift at the age of twelve to make her living after growing up in a convent, after her father abandoning his family, causing the death of her mother. In contrast with her licentious sister, Juliette, Justine is virtuous and maintains her conviction that people are fundamentally good, no matter how they mistreat her. She uses what little money she has to live humbly for two years but, unable to find anyone to help her, is forced to take to the road to seek work. During her journey she continually thinks she has been saved, as when she is employed by the monks of a monastery, but those she trusts most exploit her the most. Catalan, 1991. NBM, 1993.
