Human Hearts and other oddities
What does it mean to be human in these dark days of the 21 st century? What does it mean to
have a heart?
'Human Hearts and other oddities' sets out to explore those questions through beautifully
strange and haunting illustrations and words inspired by them: from limericks to odes, to free
verse and much else, we venture through a land of eternal night were the beating hearts are
dripping blood, necromancers disturb the eternal peace of the newly dead and a Goblin King is
sorely missed.
While the questions at the heart of this book are now as important and serious as ever, the
authors try to laugh in the face of adversity and find some humour in a world gone mad.
