Tantrum #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeA collected edition of Jules Feiffer's 1979 graphic novel, originally published by Alfred A. Knopf. The story follows a middle-aged man who, in a fit of rage, physically regresses into a child, exploring themes of anger, masculinity, and midlife crisis through Feiffer's distinctive satirical and expressive artwork. This single-volume work stands as a standalone narrative rather than part of a larger series arc.
In "1 Metamorphosis," a 2-year-old boy named Leo makes a quiet, profound decision about belonging and connection, grappling with his place in a family that seems to change when he's not around. Written and illustrated entirely by Jules Feiffer, this poignant 1979 story unfolds with a rare emotional precision, capturing a child's perspective in a world that doesn’t always recognize it. The cover by Jules Feiffer mirrors the story’s introspective tone, drawing readers into a moment of quiet transformation.
