It's on -- I'm touring the US in July in support of Ménage
a
Bughouse, my 408-page collection of my bugs-playing-jazz opus. CO2 is publishing this career watershed book.
I've started an Indiegogo campaign to raise funds for the tour, and the campaign doubles as a great way to pre-order the book at this link.
The campaign also offers rewards such as original sketches and art to backers.
Bughouse
is the story of Jimmy Watts and his band of jazz playing bugs. The
character driven story is set in a stylish “insect-noir” world,
invoking an indigo-toned Manhattan of the early 1950s. Be-bop is
king, and the alluring substance “bug juice” threatens to destroy
the players against a backdrop of romance and intrigue.

Lafler is a master cartoonist and his work is in a class by itself;
an unpredictable amalgam of fun, intelligence, breeziness and
glorious strangeness that keeps your eyes fed and your synapses
sizzling.”
