{"product_id":"kill-my-mother","title":"KILL MY MOTHER","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJules Feiffer\u003c\/strong\u003e presents his first noir graphic novel, \u003cem\u003eKill My Mother.\u003c\/em\u003e It centers on five formidable women from two unrelated families, linked fatefully and fatally by a has-been, hard-drinking private detective.\n\nAs our story begins, we meet Annie Hannigan, an out-of-control teenager, jitterbugging in the 1930s. Annie dreams of offing her mother, Elsie, whom she blames for abandoning her for a job soon after her husband, a cop, is shot and killed. Now, employed by her husband's best friend--an over-the-hill and perpetually soused private eye--Elsie finds herself covering up his missteps as she is drawn into a case of a mysterious client, who leads her into a decade-long drama of deception and dual identities sprawling from the Depression era to World War II Hollywood and the jungles of the South Pacific.\n\nAlong with three femme fatales, an obsessed daughter, and a loner heroine, Kill My Mother features a fighter turned tap dancer, a small-time thug who dreams of being a hit man, a name-dropping cab driver, a communist liquor store owner, and a hunky movie star with a mind-boggling secret. Culminating in a U.S.O. tour on a war-torn Pacific island, this disparate band of old enemies congregate to settle scores.\n\nThis graphic novel adds to Feiffer's legendary career that includes a Pulitzer Prize, an Academy Award, Obie Awards, and Lifetime Achievement Awards from the National Cartoonist Society and the Writers Guild of America.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eOut of Print.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCondition: Very Fine\/As New. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Liveright Publishing Corporation, Liveright Publishing Corporation, a division of W.
