taratieux 's review for:

Bones & All by Camille DeAngelis

3.5

---

Cannibalism as a metaphor for trauma, a form of dealing with circles of generational abuse and sexual assaults. Very interesting but sometimes confusing, especially the character of Travis, Lee was also much better utilized im the movie and the final encouter with Sully was just underwhelming. For a book that started with the concept of two cannibals in love the cannibals werent really in love that much? Like sure there was love, they cared for each other but after seeing guadagnino's epic ROMANCE this particular plotline felt rather flat in the original
