A fiendish little book, "Imps" flies up from the dark corners of the human soul to taunt and tease us by placing our most inhuman inclinations on display. Playing the trickster, author Mathew Spano exposes our sudden urge to laugh at a funeral or turn off the headlights down a pitch black road, and reveals how these impious thoughts and impish impulses arise to prick us with tiny pitchforks that we sometimes shoo away like mosquitoes or other times allow unwittingly to bore under our skin. With Spano's demonic poems and the macabre illustrations of Gustave Dore to guide us, we are prepared to unstopper the bottle and free our captive imps, but will we ever be able to round them all up again?
