An extraordinary, timely update on the classic Coleridge poem Is it possible to update a masterpiece? Only, perhaps, with a brand-new masterpiece. Written in 1797, “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” was the original eco-fable; drawn in 2010, The Rime of the Modern Mariner is a graphic novel, now set in the cesspool of the North Atlantic Garbage Patch—thus adding a timely and resonant message about the destruction of our seas. Hayes’s visually striking debut is drawn with complex, iconic images reminiscent of old woodcuts. Emerging from every exquisite page are the poem’s enduring themes: compassion for nature, a sense of connection among all living things, and rightful outrage at man’s thoughtless destruction of the environment. Powerful and evocative, lush and stark, The Rime of the Modern Mariner will appeal to fans of Habibi and Persepolis.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge's 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (Illustrated Edition)' is a haunting narrative poem that explores themes of redemption, spirituality, and the supernatural. The poem's distinctive poetic style, characterized by its use of archaic language and vivid imagery, has cemented its place as a classic of English literature. Set against the backdrop of the sea, the story follows the Mariner's harrowing journey of guilt and atonement after he senselessly kills an albatross. Through its powerful storytelling and moral allegory, Coleridge's work challenges readers to reflect on the consequences of their actions and the nature of forgiveness. Samuel Taylor Coleridge, a prominent Romantic poet and philosopher, drew inspiration for 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner' from various sources, including his own personal experiences and the folklore of the time. His deep interest in the supernatural and the metaphysical shines through in this work, as he explores themes of sin and redemption with profound insight and sensitivity. I highly recommend 'The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (Illustrated Edition)' to readers who appreciate thought-provoking literature that delves into the complexities of human nature and morality. Coleridge's masterful storytelling and imaginative vision make this edition a must-read for lovers of poetry and Gothic fiction alike.

The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is the longest major poem by the English poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The Poem relates the experiences of a sailor who has returned from a long sea voyage. The mariner stops a man who is on the way to a wedding ceremony and begins to narrate a story. The wedding-guest's reaction turns from bemusement to impatience to fear to fascination as the mariner's story progresses, as can be seen in the language style: Coleridge uses narrative techniques such as personification and repetition to create a sense of danger, the supernatural, or serenity, depending on the mood in different parts of the poem. Along with other poems in Lyrical Ballads, it was a signal shift to modern poetry and the beginning of British Romantic literature. Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772 - 1834) was an English poet, literary critic and philosopher who, with his friend William Wordsworth, was a founder of the Romantic Movement in England and a member of the Lake Poets.
