Summary:

"A series of pencil drawings that weave a patchwork narrative of metaphoric truths about humans and nature. This book taps into deep and often unsettling imagery to forge a night-time world that vividly illustrates how the difference between human and beast are often as thin as the artists' delicate pencil strokes. Vähämäki and Setola depict the humanity of their beasts as easily as they indict man for his savagery, all while blurring the line between humor and suspense."
