This graphic novel about "safe sex suits, buildings that eat people,
drunken foetuses with bazookas, money that shits on you, and recyclable
bodies" became something of an underground classic and has so far
been published in nine languages.

A unique collaboration between Max Andersson and Lars Sjunnesson resulted in this graphic novel-length piece of surreal comics journalism, erasing and re-drawing the borders between dream and reality to form a tale both sincere and fantastic. Each of them contributed to every single drawing to the extent that they no longer can tell just who did what. This has led to the emergence of an independent artistic entity, one who is neither of the two, but something else, unknown yet strangely familiar and perhaps a tiny bit scary. The story is based on true events.
This edition uses the format of the re-designed and expanded U.S. version, which includes artwork not seen in previous european editions.
It also contains an extensive illustrated glossary, a preface by Stefan Skledar and a real, folding map of Ex-Yugoslavia and Sarajevo like you never saw them before (and never will again)!
"This is a damned compelling book if you want a read that will wake you up and not lull you to sleep."
