Overview

This is an enlighteningly grotesque illustrated introduction to the omnipresent cockroach. The worlds city dwellers, especially in places like Manhattan, grow accustomed to having several hundred uninvited house guests in their homes at all times: cockroaches. Slinking in the shadowy hollows between walls, under sinks, and along the floorboards, the ubiquitous urban insects are loathsome to most and frightening to many. But you only fear what you don't know. Ekaterina Smirnovas ""An Illustrated Guide to Cockroaches"" will help everyone terrified of their six-legged roommates: through Smirnovas illustration and explanation, the entire life-cycle of the typical cockroach is laid bare. Part humorous, part disgusting, ""An Illustrated Guide to Cockroaches"" is a necessary component of every urban bookshelf.
