This artwork is extraordinary, morbid, detailed, grotesque, gorgeous, provocative, etc.,I have been picking up this book every couple of days and start my casually flipping through the pages and then end up engrossed in the details and themes. Very very cool stuff.

Basically wordless, without even a pictorial narrative to tie it all together, I felt out of my depth. Some images and sequences were fascinating, some disturbing, but all require the reader to fashion some kind of explanation or story for what you’re seeing.

My favorite illustration was the meat grinder. I felt I could grasp that one, and it was one of the few spreads that seemed to be making sense out of life instead of gently unraveling the threadbare fabric of existence. There were also a few great moments that picked apart menstruation and motherhood.

So strange. So unique. I think I'll definitely get some wonderfully weird story ideas from the rather magnificently fascinating, macabre, odd art. Great for anyone who is interested in body horror, in particular.
