The Unfortunate Life of Worms

"My final pleasure of the summer" —Hanna Rosin, The Atlantic

"For the discerning gift-giver" —Pub West

"Conveys all you needed (and perhaps never needed to know) about worms"—The Huffington Post

A wildly original, whimsical, humorous exploration of the human condition told through a worm’s eye view; a masterful pairing of the author’s artwork and ironic text in more than 250 illustrated pages. This innovative, ironic, and metaphoric exploration of the life of worms is a stunning showcase of Noemi Vola’s impressive and versatile talents as both an illustrator and a writer. Her funny, clever illustrations are paired with pithy, ironic text that conveys all you ever needed (and perhaps never needed) to know about worms. Beginning with “factual” material about worms in general, from eating habits to underground habitats to its varying shades of pink, there is much to discover about worms.
