Jules Feiffer lets his stories steer their own course. Years ago he started writing a picture book for his youngest daughter, Julie. Quickly he understood the language wasn’t allowing it to be a picture book and soon he was embarking on the full length children’s novel, A Room with a Zoo. His newest endeavor is uncharted territory for the 84-year-old writer and artist who has accrued a Pulitzer for his serial comic strip Feiffer, an Academy Award for his short film Munro, and two Obies. The graphic novel, Kill My Mother, began as a 1940s noir detective novel.
