Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0486298019, Paperback)

One of Blake's most interesting and powerful creations — a parody of the book of Genesis in which the righteous figure of God is replaced by that of Urizen, the "dark power." Included are 27 hand-colored plates rich in energy and monumental grandeur, along with a printed transcription of the poem.
