About the Author:
Bob Fingerman is the award-winning creator of such critically acclaimed graphic novels as "Beg the Question", "White Like She", and "Recess Pieces". In his novel "Bottomfeeder", Fingerman tossed away the typical gothic and romantic trappings of the vampire genre in favor of portraying the down-to-earth story of a working class Queens-bred vampire. In "Recess Pieces", Fingerman whipped up a bloody maelstrom of adorable moppets and the living dead set within the confines of a school. In the uneasy romantic roman a clef "Beg the Question" he presented anxious young love in the streets of Brooklyn long before gentrification. His graphic novel "From the Ashes "is a "speculative memoir" set in the post-apocalyptic ruins of New York City. He has a short story in the zombie anthology "The Living Dead 2". He lives in New York City with his wife, Michele.

Review:
"Recently divorced cartoonist Rob Hoffman sets forth in the terrifying world of single life in New York City in the second volume of Fingerman's urban soap opera comedy. When Fingerman portrays the events of Rob's life, the book is gripping. Fingerman remains very skilled in capturing the art of casual conversation, and his depiction of the social spaces of New York City is flawless, with a gallery of vivid urban bystanders who could all be going through their own crises of self-doubt. Self-absorption aside, there is plenty to enjoy." -- Publishers Weekly
