This book is a carnival of macabre imagery. Blood, guts, sinew, dangling eyeballs, displaced intestines, hags and heroes, this book dishes out punishments that only an intensly depraved mind would concoct. Includes illustrations from Yoshiiku, Yoshitoshi, Maruo and Hanawa. While the imagery within is compelling enough reason to pick this up, it also includes explanations of the pieces in both Japanese and English. So much Japanese Myth and Folklore! This book is worth it's weight, I've been in it all afternoon. I have 2 copies in stock and am hunting for more as we speak!
