Horny Lizards And Headless Chickens: Everything you need to know about our weird, wonderful and downright disgusting world
Francesca Gould
Prose: non-fiction, Reference works
A thoroughly distasteful and utterly compelling book of facts for people who love gross, putrid and stomach-churning information.
HORNY LIZARDS AND HEADLESS CHICKENS is a vile and disgusting compendium of the world s most unpleasant creatures, diseases, hideous tortures and every other type of horrifying, nauseating fact imaginable. Questions posed in the book address revolting matters such as:
* Do flies really puke on your food?
* Which worm can eat its way through the human eye?
* And how long does a head remain conscious after being guillotined?
In HORNY LIZARDS AND HEADLESS CHICKENS, readers can explore a huge range of horrible subjects, which most books have the good sense to avoid, including Aztec sacrifices, bizarre medical treatments, body snatchers, cannibalism, and eye-wateringly unpleasant execution methods. You are guaranteed a brilliantly sickening read.
