In this nightmarish novel, winner of the 2017 Clarin Prize, cannibalism has become legal in most parts of the world because of a virus transmitted to humans from animals and causing their death.
Governments decide to exterminate animals to face the crisis, but the bigger problem is that humans need animal protein to satisfy their hunger. Thus, over time, individual attempts by some members of society to eat the weakest members of society, the poor and marginalized, begin. This time, governments resort to legalizing the breeding of genetically modified “human heads” to fill the void left by the absence of animals and to provide protein needs, and to breathe life back into the meat industry, which is worth millions.
Is there really a shred of humanity left in humans? Does humanity even exist when people burn their dead to avoid having their graves dug up and their bodies eaten? In this harsh dystopia, Agustina Patricia offers us a contemporary literary masterpiece about how humans literally and metaphorically eat each other in a work that will shock the reader in every page.
