Monsters do not exist

A simple love story about confronting the monster under the bed. Suburban life takes a dramatic turn, tentacles appears out of nowhere all over the house and in the nusery the soft toys gets a life of their own when a thesis-writing woman comes face to face with a monster. The book alludes to a wide range of references from popular culture including Japanese tentacle hentai, animal documentaries from the depths of the ocean as well as the classic Danish TV series Matador. All woven into an original story drawn in a soft and organic style rich in details and unmistakably its own. Monsters Do Not Exist is an everyday story which with subtle warm humour examines serious themes such as power structures in relationships, gender roles and sex, without offering any easy solutions. Monsters Do Not Exist is drawn and written by Ina Korneliussen and published by Hunov & Haffgaard. The book comes in an English edition, as well as a Danish.
