Tender is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica

Tender is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica

Everyone's eating human meat. Would you? The shocking, darkly gripping dystopian novel in which cannibalism is legal.

'Horribly effective.. This provocative novel expertly wields a double-edged cleaver... 'in the end, meat is meat, it doesn't matter where it's from'; it's a statement of both dystopic extremity and banal everyday fact' - Guardian

'A compelling dystopian novel' - Independent

'This is a hideous, bold and unforgettable vision of the future. Just make sure you've eaten before picking it up' - i-D magazine

'Told with a chilly aloofness that makes the horror of it all the more disturbing' - Financial Times

'A thrilling dystopia that everyone should read' - Dazed

'A skin crawling yet compelling read' - Refinery29
