Lobster by Guillaume Lecasble

3.0

It is not to be imagined, that one might ever hear tell of a more star-crossed pair of lovers than Angelina and Lobster, or list to a sorrier tale of woeful love-sex-death than this here one. Driven by the cruel icy waters of the Atlantic from the slightly cooked and bepinked pincers of the unlikely being who awakened her to full womanhood, Angelina survives the wreck of the Titanic only to seek unwholesome, damaging embraces of other crustaceans, and can't stop sniffing her hand with its odor of bayleaves and fish stock. Meanwhile, Lobster searches the sea bed for his lost love. How they are ultimately reunited by their devouring passion in a frothy, erotic leibestod... well, words fail.
