Shitpost February: "my love of shocking the reader"

... will be really hindered by the exciting title page of my book.


title page of The Monk, which summarizes the entire plot

(Though maybe it's fine, because the parts of this book that are the most bonkers don't actually make the title page!)

Oh my. I have fond memories of reading The Monk: it's such a rare experience (and that's probably a good thing). I'd forgotten about the title, however, and rereading this page is a literary adventure in itself.

Also, I'm loving the illustration with that monk penning a demonstration sign of "Soul and Body forever." What a protest motto! Is that a crossover from Good Omens? Excuse me, I need to go see if there's fanfic.
