A FINANCIAL TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR
'A hideous, bold, unforgettable vision of the future' i-D
'A thrilling dystopia that everyone should read' Dazed
If everyone was eating human meat, would you?
Marcos is in the business of slaughtering humans - only no one calls them that. He works with numbers, consignments, processing. One day, he's given a specimen of the finest quality. He leaves her tied up in an outhouse, a problem to be disposed of later.
But she haunts Marcos. Her trembling body, and watchful gaze, seem to understand. And soon, he becomes tortured by what has been lost - and what might still be saved...
'Bazterrica plunges her readers into a whirlpool of indescribable inhumanity. This book will pull you in, take hold, and not let go until you reach the final page - perhaps far longer than that. Without a doubt, my favourite read of this year' --Christina Dalcher, author of VOX
'What a compelling, terrible beauty this novel is. My heart was breaking even as my skin was crawling' --Lisa McInerney, author of The Glorious Heresies
'There's nothing described that isn't done to livestock... grimly engrossing, with a sucker-punch ending. And it may well put you off that bacon sandwich' --The Times
