Black Tower Books: The Collected Ben R. Dilworth


 
 Ben R. Dilworth
A4
Illustrated prose/Haiku
84 pages
paperback
Price: £8.00
Collecting together the best selling illustrated prose of Ben Dilworth. 
 
In Osaka Brutal, the Haiku Gold Belt holder presents his own personal Haiku beating the ear drums like a Taiko ensemble!
 
In Aesop's Fables the childhood favourites become rather darker and threatening. Originally intended for his own daughter, Dilworth had second thoughts because of the darker stories. You never heard these fables at Sunday School!
 
In Western Yokai and Japanese Yokai, Dilworth looks at a mixture of strange, sinister and deadly demons and spirits both friendly, hostile and indifferent -each story is illustrated by Dilworth and, boy, are there some eye-poppers!
