Five spiritualist students at a Buddhist college in Japan realize the job market is tough these days... among the living, that is! But the dead need jobs done too, so the five form the Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service, carrying out the last wishes of their cadaverous clients, so their souls can move on. But the Kurosagi gang are magnets for weirdness - not just corpses - and every case gets them involved in disturbing personal obsessions, bizarre modern Tokyo fads, and strange rituals of old Japan! Collects The Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service Volumes 1–3.
"A new collection of delightfully macabre tales from a master of horror
manga.
An old wooden mansion that turns on its inhabitants. A dissection class
with a most unusual subject. A funeral where the dead are definitely not
laid to rest. Ranging from the terrifying to the comedic, from the erotic
to the loathsome, these stories showcase Junji Ito’s long-awaited return
to the world of horror."
"What's left when a relationship ends? Where does jealousy come from?
Delicately and sensitively, Leanne Shapton (Swimming Studies)
ruminates on ex-lovers, and our lovers' ex-lovers. A few expressive pencil
lines outline a long-abandoned winter coat here, an ineffably alluring Mona
Lisa smile there. Each double page describes the way all exes are captured:
as impossible to live up to as a Polaroid taken at a flattering angle.
This new paperback edition of Was She Pretty? brings the reader
deep into a circle of phantoms: its intimate liaisons, embarrassing
secrets, and sardonic anecdotes. Shapton introduces the obsessives and the
dilettantes, the poets and the actresses, the people with great hair and
the people with idiosyncratic clothes. As funny as it is insightful,
Was She Pretty? speaks to a central human concern: How do we
compare? Elegantly drawn and perfectly narrated, the pages of Was She
Pretty? are a testimonial to the power of observation and
misapprehension."

"A darkly funny portrait of middle America seen through the stunted
minds of its children.
The modern lost souls of Beverly struggle with sexual anxieties
that are just barely repressed and social insecurities that
undermine every word they speak. Time passes, bodies change sizes,
realities blur with fantasies, truths disintegrate, childhood comforts turn
uncomfortable. Again and again, the civilized façades of Nick Drnaso’s
pitch-perfect suburban landscapes crack in the face of violence and quiet
brutality. Drnaso's debut graphic novel leaves you haunted and squirming
and longing for more."
