Of Cattle and Men by Ana Paula Maia
dark
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Plot
- Strong character development? It's complicated
3.5
If I could summerize this book in one worth it would be survival. This book is about people and animals surviving in a cruel world.
The story show how brutal meat processing can be and has a character that cares and wonders how he can at least kill with the least amount of guilt possible. It makes you think of your own consumption. These animals are taking their own lives, which makes you wonder about the ethics and the agency of animals. The mentions of extreme poverty makes this a sad story of people trying to survive by risking their life.
As hort but heavy story about killing and eating meat, but mostly its also about survival.
