Invisible Ink: My Mother’s Love Affair With A Famous Cartoonist

This is the renowned cartoonist’s first long-form graphic work – a 200-page memoir that poignantly recounts his mother’s secret life, which included an affair with a cartoonist and crime novelist in the 1950s and ’60s. Invisible Ink unfolds like a detective story, alternating between past and present, as Griffith recreates the quotidian habits of suburban Levittown and the professional and cultural life of mid-century Manhattan in the 1950s and ’60s as seen through his mother’s and his own then-teenage eyes. Griffith puts the pieces together and reveals a mother he never knew. —- ISBN: 9781606998953 | ISBN10: 1606998951 | ISBN-13: 978-1606998953
