Leído: Highly inappropiate tales for young tales de Douglas Coupland, Graham Roumieu

Highly inappropiate tales for young tales - Douglas Coupland, Graham Roumieu. London: William Heinemann, 2011. 131 p.

Otro libro más en inglés, en este caso unos cuentos de Douglas Coupland, y Graham Roumieu, que siguen la tradición de Roald Dahl, cuentos irreverentes con historias extrañas, que te hacen reir y más a menudo reflexionar sobre esos temas.
Me han gustado los cuentos de la niñera, y el del zumo, por sus aspectos más irreverentes.

In the grand tradition of Edward Gorey's Gashlycrumb Tinies, Tim Burton's Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy and Hillaire Belloc's Cautionary Tales for Children, comes Douglas Coupland and Graham Roumieu's Highly Inappropriate Tales for Young People.

Ever wonder what would happen if Douglas Coupland's unhinged imagination met Graham Roumieu's insane knack for illustrating the ridiculously weird? The answer is seven deliciously wicked tales featuring seven highly improbable, not only inappropriate, characters, including Donald the Incredibly Hostile Juice Box, Hans the Weird Exchange Student, Brandon the Action Figure with Issues and Kevin the Hobo Minivan with Extremely Low Morals. If you are over the age of consent, seriously weird or just like to laugh, you'll love the unlovable miscreants who unleash their dark and unruly desires on every page of these unsuitable, completely hilarious tales.
