Roman Dirge – författare

Hands down, the funniest book of the decade! From the twisted imagination of Roman Dirge, the Michelangelo of the macabre comes this, his latest magnificent masterpiece - I CAN COUNT TO TEN, the first non-children's book for adults. Roman Dirge's unique brand of humor spawned the subgenre for cute girl gothic horror/humor. If you loved Roman Dirge's unique, anarchic and counter-culture cult classic LENORE: THE CUTE LITTLE DEAD GIRL, then get ready for his greatest book yet!Presented as a child's primer book for maths, I Can Count to Ten is without doubt the single most completely useless teaching aid for anyone looking for a book to teach them how to count to ten. What starts as the cutest counting book in the history of education, soon descends spectacularly into the single goriest, bloodiest, and funniest non-teaching aid EVER, that somehow manages to shoehorn in a sinister government conspiracy and an alien invasion into a gentle tale of a bunch of loveable numbers introducing themselves in order.Genius is a word bandied about a lot, but what Roman has done here is nothing less than pure genius, creating a genuinely funny belly-laugh of a book that will have any reader crying with laughter.

This is the tragic story of a cat called Cat and his stupidly enormous over-sized head as he struggles with day-to-day problems like coping with hairballs, trying to eat Chunky Beef Chunk With Beef catfood or dealing with the neighbourhood mouse, Mr. Stinky and his army of annoying mice. Life hasn't dealt Cat a good hand, but still there's always the prospect of reincarnation and a better life isn't there...?

As Roman Dirge, creator, author and artist of Lenore: The Cute The Dead Girl describes it, 'This is a collection of children's tales for disturbed children.' This is Roman at his most macabre best, short stories with creepy stings in their tales. This collection has been recoloured by Roman Dirge approved artist, Adam Bolton who also recoloured Roman's Cat With The Really Big Head.
