Description: Robert Caligari is a thoroughly evil thirteen-year-old who gets his kicks from kicking pigs.

This subversive horror-fantasy is illustrated throughout with black and white line drawings from David Roberts.
Synopsis: Robert Caligari is a thoroughly evil thirteen-year-old who gets his kicks from kicking pigs. After a humiliating episode with a bacon butty, Robert realizes just how much he loathes the human race - and his revenge is truly terrible. This subversive horror-fantasy from Tom Baker (ex-monk, ex-sailor, and the ultimate Doctor Who) is outrageous and funny, and since the hardback was published in 1999 has gone on to become a cult classic. It is illustrated throughout with b/w line drawings from David Roberts.
