A seminal work of manga from the mid-1980s, <i>Monster Man Bureiko Lullaby</i> is a Candide-esque tale–if you can picture Candide as a mutated sperm brought to life by radioactivity. Unremittingly explicit, this is the comics equivalent of Henry Miller at his best: direct, honest and insightful while simultaneously beautiful and grotesque. (Source: PictureBox)
