Vortex - Representative works of Junji Ito

Divided into two volumes, it is a classic Japanese horror manga. To be honest, I’m a bit uncomfortable with this genre.

This book looks all write whirlwind, actually a bit of realistic allegory. Mainly reflects the current situation of Japanese people under the economic problems of Japan at that time. When everyone is tied to capital, humanity is lost, society becomes deformed…
