A review by ccfrostybits
Tender Is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica

4.0

This is one of the books that feels more spoken than written. The voice of the narrative feels haunted. Almost like it was being told to you over a cigarette and a glass of whiskey with the chill of the night air and a view of the smokestacks of the slaughterhouse in the distance. It's grim and unrelenting and absolutely tragic to read. Not much I would do to change this one, and I can tell you for certain I will NOT be reading this again. 8/10
