Details: Amazon.de The best thing about "Kleines Arschloch" (Little Asshole) are its critics. "This comic book is written against humanity," noted an angry citizen in a letter to cartoonist Walter Moers, "all I can say about this monstrosity is: Satanic Verses," wrote another. One even sent a copy of his letter "to the Vicariate General of the Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart." In short: "Kleines Arschloch" is exactly the comic character our parents always warned us about. And it is our parents who are writing these letters to the editor. The story of "Kleines Arschloch" can now be found in "Schamlos!" (Shameless!). Incredibly well-researched background reports, miserably drawn sketches, hideous painting fakes, at times brilliant comic strips – and precisely those letters from our parents; and there's even a "Kleines Arschloch" mask included as a gimmick. Even if the merchandising hype and the sometimes rather calculated provocation surrounding "Kleines Arschloch" can get on one's nerves, and seemingly scandalous words like "ficken" (to fuck) are now part of the etiquette of a stuffy "fun culture" and Käpt'n Blaubär is a thousand times better: "Schamlos" belongs in every well-stocked bookshelf. At least when our parents are visiting. --Thomas Köster About the Author and Additional Contributors Walter Moers lives and works as a cartoonist and author in Hamburg. After "The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear," "Ensel und Krete" is the second book set on the fabulous continent of Zamonia. Together with Professor Doktor Nachtigaller, Walter Moers is a co-founder of the Zamonian Night School, an academy that exists exclusively on the Internet and can be attended by anyone.
