About the Author
Hugleikur Dagsson's silly little cartoons took the Icelandic counter-culture scene by storm when they were initially published as photocopies stapled together by the author himself. Subsequently, the book has become a best-seller in Iceland - and he has produced a play of the book which recently won the Best Play of 2005 award in Iceland's main national newspaper. Hugleikur lives in Reykjavik - and is talk of the town. He is currently working on a musical.

I just bought this book today and started reading it on a tube. Well, I guess people were thinking I must be crazy, because I literally found myself laughing out loud. This is gonna be a classic, so put your hands on it as soon as possible.

I've only seen a dozen or so pages from a promo pamphlet, but my word, they are hilarious. True, they're dark humour, in fact very dark, and occaisionlly quite deviant. But fantastic! You need this book,if only so you understand when every t-shirt, card and poster becomes dagsson when this gets published. The question is should you be laughing? To be honest, that underlying guilt that you really shouldn't be, makes them even better. Buy it!

I never realised I had such a sick sense of humour until I picked up this book. It is depraved to the max and for some reason all my guy friends love it. It explains a lot a things about Bjork anyway.

Hilaroius, rude, wrong coffee table read. A good place to start, but not as funny as 'Is This Some Kind of Joke', the red covered book in this series.
