TAKASHI NEMOTO: Monster Men Bureiko Lullaby; Paperback
194 pages Controversial/Underground/Japanese/Comic/Manga/Obscene, Paperback - RARE!
If you can't tell from the cover and synopsis, the book is fairly obscene. The humor is sub-scatological. The drawing style is brutally ugly. But it is an incredibly unique and entertaining work that is well worth your time. Nothing escapes Nemoto's scathing, misanthropic satire here, from radiation victims to hyper-masculinity - even the manga industry itself gets torn apart. This is an absolute must for any lover of underground and alternative comics, or outsider art in general. You will have never read anything like it. A seminal work of manga from the mid-1980s, Monster Men Bureiko Lullaby is a Candide-esque tale--if you can picture Candide as a mutated sperm brought to life by radioactivity. Unremittingly explicit, direct, honest and insightful while simultaneously beautiful and grotesque. Due to his unapologetically squalid subject matter, surreal drawing style and pessimistic, satirical stance, Nemoto has long been a controversial figure in Japan.

INDEX Peter Sotos (1998); Paperback
Large format paperback - Used, (Ex)
Sotos is one of a kind and his shocking and confrontational work is a sexual ground zero; he writes the most disturbing, provocative material (this book, as well as his other ones - TOTAL ABUSE, SPECIAL, and LAZY) about sex and pornography available today. As precise and articulate as he is (possibly) insane, Sotos may well be the De Sade or Bataille for the 21st century.
