Description

Crazy for You collects two piercing novellas adapted for comics by Steve Lafler from Paul Theroux’s sharp, roaming prose. Money, power, and desire collide as contemporary society’s gilded surfaces reveal their shadows in "Minor Watt"—a savage art-world satire about owning art and the irresistible thrill of destroying it. Its companion, "Siamese Nights," threads infidelity, obsession, and exotic allure into a midlife-crisis lament, where every choice echoes with consequence. Lafler’s bold, expressive line work channels pulp exuberance while underscoring the vulnerability of Theroux’s characters, letting readers feel the pull of charisma and the cost of craving more. This softcover edition presents the stories in stark black-and-white, preserving the noir mood that suits their mature themes. A dramatic, conversation-starting fusion of literary prestige and comic-book artistry, Crazy for You pulls you right to the edge and then pushes you over.

Who might be interested in reading?

  • Fans of literary fiction and noir-infused comics who appreciate adaptations of established writers.
  • Readers who enjoy dark satire about art, status, and midlife desire.
  • Adults seeking mature, provocative themes paired with bold, expressive artwork.
  • Readers curious about Paul Theroux’s prose reimagined for graphic storytelling.
