One of the most successful books of the past decade is back in a new printing (the first-ever printing by Drawn & Quarterly), just in time for the new century! The New York Times Book Review called Jar of Fools "...a lovely, short 'picture novel' exploring the tenacious bond between an alcoholic stage magician and his cranky mentor". Jason Lutes' formidable skills as an artist and writer are in evidence here in his first book as he relates the story of Ernie Weiss, a former magician haunted by the death of his escape-artist brother and a failed romance. With the recent release of Berlin; Book One, this new edition of Jar of Fools will serve as an excellent introduction to the early work of Jason Lutes.
