I believe you are mistaken. All though this is a bit later in his career so who knows?
I am very familiar with Jules Feiffer. I believe this is about the guy who is writing with a mind (perhaps mistaken) That a woman will fall in love with him for his pages. Writing in reaction to his imagination of what it might do for him, not simply for the work.
Does Jules think this person is a fool? I think so. Can he relate? I’m certain he probably can.

This drawing says a lot. It speaks of joy and creativity. I like how it flows, it’s simple, carefree, and relaxing.

des mains actives de l’écrivain , de son esprit bouillonnant , de la passion tumultueuse qui l’anime …repose la féminité tranquille sur chacun de ses mots

I could see in these pic the way tha all the dreamers do today, therefore we could dream with the books, and our imagination, today the net cmoe us with all the stuffs and we just take a click, just one click to the new world.

I thought nothing takes better our dreams than the books.

I don’t know Jules Feiffer, but when I saw this picture(The Author writing, and the woman coming out from his words) It reminded me of a Writer who said that he used to make his conquests with women, writing poems and stories on paper napkins.
Do you know this Author, mr Coelho?
Have a nice Christmas everybody

This by far is my favorite of all the ‘images of the day’.
I appreciate that art desires and deserves space to ‘breathe and thrive’. The female image has an expression of sheer joy and pleasure because of the attention she is given.

When art comes to life is what resonates in my soul when viewing this image.

I am inspired to purchase some of his work. Thank you for sharing this image.

The career of Jules American is not trivial. He has travelled sixty years of creation to the USA, but has been very little published in France
The stories of Jules American often revolve around a same theme, the affirmation of its own identity, in a world blind and deaf, where the indifference prevails.
1986 : Jules American receives the Pulitzer Prize for his drawings of the press. 1989 : Jules American writing the scenario of the film of Alain Resnais: I want to go home. The film is doubly award-winning the festival of Venice (Best Film, Best scenario) 1993 : Jules American initiates a career of draftsman for children. Publication of The man in the Ceiling. A dozen other titles will follow. 1995: It is rewarded by the American Academy of Arts and Letters. 2007: Publication in Fran
