Demon slayer

A contemporary fable about a woman who is beset by demons. They threaten her, eat her food and take her money and beat her down. They make her husband ill, menace her child, steal her father’s spirit and erase her mother’s memory. Since no one else can get rid of the demons, she becomes her own hero and takes up the sword. Enter Demon Slayer. This is a story woven around full page, digitally created images. The book is filled with rich, saturated, glossy color and layered transparencies and is an exploration of the possibilities of an inkjet.
