T IS FOR TORTURE by Marie Lestrange

What better way to learn about historical methods of torture than through laughable cartoons?

For fans of Go the Fck to Sleep and The Gashlycrumb Tinies, T is for Torture is a parody ABC book for those with a darker sense of humor. Profane and satirical, Author Marie Lestrange pairs offensively hilarious rhymes with horrifying, yet endearing, illustrations as she teaches you about medieval torture methods from A to Z.

Please Note: This book is for entertainment purposes only– it is not an instruction manual.

T is for Torture is the perfect read for your friends that love Horror, True Crime, and History, and a hysterical gag gift for those that don’t!

The Little Lestrange book series is written for adults, and possibly teens– with the exception of those with dubious intent. (Looking at you, Extreme Horror crowd…just kidding!)

PERFECT FOR:

Wednesday Addams

Horror fans

True Crime fanatics

Goths (especially Goth Baby)

With each page, this absurd and twisted take on the ABCs invites conversation about the history of crime, torture, and differing societal standards regarding corporal punishment. Again, while visually deceptive as a children's picture book, this work is strictly for a mature audience due to the explicit (yet hilarious) content.

Coming Soon in the Little Lestrange Series:

S is for Serial Killers

C is for Cannibalism

A is for Asylum
