Anatomica: The Exquisite and Unsettling Art of Human Anatomy

Joanna Ebenstein is one of our very best spelunkers into the world of the oddball and the offbeat. She is a masterful curator of things beautifully disgusting and morbidly fascinating. A true resurrectionist, she excels at dredging up from our collective unconscious items of uncanny beauty and terrifying wonder. Colin Dickey, author of Ghostland and The Unidentified "A lovingly curated and beautifully printed collection that belongs on every morbid enthusiast's bookshelf." Caitlin Doughty, mortician, author, and founder of The Order of the Good Death "If Morticia Adams had a coffee table book, this would probably be it. This is not a book to read, so much as to drink in.it's a book you can browse, like a good exhibition." C Word: The Conservator's Podcast There's a fine line between the horrible and the sublime, and Joanna Ebenstein's Anatomica: The Exquisite and Unsettling Art of Human Anatomy walks it." New York Times Book Review Joanna Ebenstein is an internationally recognized expert in the art of anatomy and creator of the Morbid Anatomy blog, library and event series. Her books include Death: A Graveside Companion and The Anatomical Venus, both for Thames and Hudson.
