Présentation de l'éditeur

In this book you will find monsters who are sad, misunderstood, discouraged, lonely, and in many cases demonized, particularly the demons. Perhaps someday you will realize that inside each of them is a human, or at least parts of one. Because these monsters hunger for more than man-flesh; they hunger for love. Exploring the secret lives of monsters from literature and popular culture Frank Lesser presents Godzilla facing an existential crisis, a yeti longing to work for Vogue magazine while Hansel and Gretel s witch complains about her new no-child diet. Sad Monsters catalogues the mood swings, shortcomings and neuroses of ghouls, goblins and unicorns, and proves that monsters are only human.
