'Tender Is The Flesh' is a dark and gory story. But it's darkness and gore serve to illustrate an image of our modern reality and the loss of humanity that is often found within capitalistic systems around the globe. 

This story was very disturbing at times, but it was hard to put down and the twist at the end was a shocking end to a unique and thought provoking story.
