3.0

This book is weird, no other way to describe it. It's hyperbolic, grotesque in every way (which the illustrations certainly add to) and generally strange. The writing style and ultraviolence of the book remind me a tiny bit of a clockwork orange but you're better of reading that book. I don't think I could recommend this in good conscience.
