Publisher's Synopsis

The second micro-anthology from Sidekick Books contains poems and artwork inspired by traditional Japanese monsters. The title is a portmanteau of 'panorama' and 'Obakemono', the Japanese word for a changed or perverted thing (with the 'o' prefix denoting respect), and accordingly there lurks within its pages long-necked and long-tongued demons, winged dogs, mysterious children hiding in umbrellas, amphibious tricksters, killer scarves, cloud apparitions and numerous other age-old horrors of myth and legend.

The contributing poets are: Amy Blakemore, David Floyd, Aiko Harman, Kirsten Irving, Roddy Lumsden, Ian McLachlan, Adham Smart, Wayne Holloway-Smith, Richard Watt and Chrissy Williams.

The contributing artists are: Mary Graham, Hanne Harkonen, Jd, Seb Manley, Darnae 'Crimsonwolf' Sobolewski and Mike Stone.
