A review by smurphari
Headcheese by Jess Hagemann

5.0

I devoured this. Could not put it down.

As a Chuck Palahniuk fan, Headcheese scratched that itch for something grotesque somehow made more familiar and normal by the context of the world of the book. Even the format of how the story unfolds is refreshing - I've never read anything like it.

The author's research skills and dedication to doing justice to the subject matter really shine through. It also makes a unique gift for the right crowd. I cannot recommend it highly enough!
