"Pekar's most poignant and satisfying effort to date."
-
The New York Times Book Review
"A searingly honest memoir... Pekar's work dignifies the struggle of the average man."
-
Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
"The brilliance of THE QUITTER rests in how Pekar unironically exposes the tragedy of missed opportunities and the general ridiculousness of human behavior. Grade: A."

"Brutally honest..." -
Rolling Stone
Don't miss this new softcover edition of the award-nominated graphic novel telling the story of Harkey Pekar's troubled teen years for the first time. With gritty, atmospheric artwork by indie-comics luminary Dean Haspiel (American Splendor, Opposable Thumbs), THE QUITTER is both Pekar's funniest and most heart-wrenching work yet.
