Description
Monsters is an illustrated collection of wild, weird, and whimsical tales with a twist. These stories are not about mythical creatures; here, the creatures speak for themselves.
Jensen creates a world both delicately dreamlike and all too real, where the villain is sometimes the victim and evil is not always what we thought. If these stories teach us how to be human, then they are the ones we need now.
With macabre, melancholy, and magical tales that lay bare the roots of sadism and confront the horrors of human supremacism, Monsters will leave you wondering who the real monsters are and how they can be defeated. The accompanying images add to the complexity and depth of these fractured fairy tales for grown-ups.
