Summary:
From Mona publisher website, viewed 19 August 2020: "The joy of puzzles is universal. So is the joy of poo. So we've brought them together in joyful, crappy unison: Wim Delvoye's Cloaca Professional ... rendered at long last in jigsaw form. 1000 pieces, mostly black, takes weeks to complete - gird your posterior and settle in for the long haul."
