Jar of Fools: Jason Lutes

Synopsis:

Haunted by a failed romance and the death of his escape-artist brother, Ernie Weiss is a washed-up magician whose remaining hope lies in his ageing mentor, Al Flosso. But Al is slipping further into senility with each passing day. Meanwhile, Esther O’Dea, Ernie’s ex-love, struggles to find peace in her own life, and then a con-man named Nathan Lender sets some mysterious plans in motion that will affect the futures of them all.

A compelling rumination on the nature of love, loss, magic and memory, Jar of Fools is a classic of its genre.
