Ghastly, funny and smells great!

The base delusion that's human society reflects in the book. You will be amazed how reading excites your olfactory senses just as in the book smelling excites other senses

A literary feast.

Each line of the book is like a whisp of odour that the perfume is eminating. Delicious book. Better than food.
