Little Murders by Jules Feiffer

A darkly comic satire set in a chaotic, violence-plagued city, it follows a bewildered, passive young man trying to make sense of senseless crime, family dysfunction, and the erosion of civic and moral order. As loved ones and institutions fail — from therapy to the media and politicians — his attempts at ordinary life unravel into absurd, often tragicomic confrontations with societal madness. The work skewers modern urban life, showing how fear, apathy, and spectacle corrode human connection.
