When cartoonist Harry Bliss lost his dog of 17 years, Penny, he realized in his grief that he wanted to take stock of his life. The result is a new graphic memoir, You Can Never Die, featuring his many illustrations of Penny, journal entries, reflections on his often dysfunctional family and his career.
Bliss will be in conversation with New Yorker cartoon editor Emma Allen at P&T Knitwear on April 30 at 6:30.
