I'll write a clearer review after a re-read. This book is horrific tho, no doubt. A quick read, too.

In this deeply disturbing dystopian novel, a virus has resulted in all animals being slaughtered resulting in cannibalism being legal and accepted. Marcos works in a processing plant, and we follow his story with a focus on his actions after receiving a female specimen as a gift. The book contains graphic descriptions of slaughter.
 This book was an addictive read, and genuinely made me think and reflect on many issues of society.
