A review by jeffcass
The Liminal Zone by Junji Ito

3.0

There are only four stories included in The Liminal Zone, so if you are looking for a diverse collection, this may not be the best Junji Ito book for you. Although I enjoyed all four stories, if someone was new to Junji Ito, The Liminal Zone would not be my first recommendation. It is okay, but it is not Ito's best work.

Madonna is probably my favourite story from this collection due to its religious and paedophilic themes. I was eager to read The Spirit Flow of Aokigahara, especially to see how the notorious suicide forest was depicted in Junji Ito's universe, but I was somewhat let down by the story.
