review 1: I have to confess that I was one of the illustrators of this amazing book and that I laughed so hard on this job that I was unable to draw straight on some pages.If you loathe the pre-packaged bilge that passes for most of modern literature, if you eschew the comatose drivelings that pass for rational thought these days and above all, if you think man is a very, very, very bad animal who usually deserves what he gets, read this book. Very much in the vein of Ambrose Bierce, Twain and Nathanael West, but MORE FUNNY and MORE DIRTY.
review 2: This is completely irreverent and heretical and right on target. In this 'reference' book are entries and definitions and very short essays from imps and demons all they way up to the Prince of Darkness himself on the follies... more of humankind, and how much we think we are actually in control of our own fate.The irony is so sharp, it will stab you in the gut and laugh maniacally while you bleed to death. If you are a depressive, it will make you feel oh so much worse. If you have evil tendencies, it will teach you how to hone them to master class levels. We are, in fact, living in hell. But this helps make it somewhat more palatable, somehow. less
