Something that makes Dorothy so unforgettable is the harsh, blunt language she uses throughout the novel. She doesn't once shy away from the brutality of her crimes, or of the inherent messiness that comes with the evisceration of one's life. Pun intended. She's cold and calculated, looking at the people around her as prey; as toys to be used for sex or sustenance or both. At its core, A Certain Hunger explores what happens when a woman will go to any lengths to sate herself...burned bridges (or corpses) be damned.
