Monica Lewinsky turns into a cartoon character

New York, Sept 18 : Monica Lewinsky is once again in the news, for she has been transformed into a cartoon character for a graphic novel.

'The Alcoholic' by Jonathan Ames and Dean Haspie shows a booze-addled writer meeting the Portly Pepperpot at a book reading.

"I tried not to, but I couldn't help myself - I stared at her mouth," the New York Post quoted the author as writing.

The two are seen dining with friends at Veselka in the East Village, her where, Lewinsky is shown gorging a plate of kielbasa.

"When she said the kielbasa looked delicious, it was like all the sound drained out of a very noisy restaurant," the character said.

"The whole table went into collective shock. We all thought the same thing: 'Monica thinks that looks delicious!'" it added.
