À propos de cet audio
Working at the local processing plant, Marcos is in the business of slaughtering humans - though no one calls them that anymore.
His wife has left him, his father is sinking into dementia, and Marcos tries not to think too hard about how he makes a living. After all, it happened so quickly. First, it was reported that an infectious virus has made all animal meat poisonous to humans. Then governments initiated the "Transition". Now, eating human meat - "special meat" - is legal. Marcos tries to stick to numbers, consignments, processing.
Then one day he's given a gift: a live specimen of the finest quality. Though he's aware that any form of personal contact is forbidden on pain of death, little by little he starts to treat her like a human being. And soon, he becomes tortured by what has been lost - and what might still be saved.

Histoire5 out of 5 stars 1
From her cell in a mysterious convent, a woman writes the story of her life in whatever she can find—discarded ink, dirt, and even her own blood. A lower member of the Sacred Sisterhood, deemed an unworthy, she dreams of ascending to the ranks of the Enlightened at the center of the convent and of pleasing the foreboding Superior Sister. Outside, the world is plagued by catastrophe—cities are submerged underwater, electricity and the internet are nonexistent, and bands of survivors fight and forage in a cruel, barren landscape. Inside, the narrator is controlled, punished, but safe.

On an unnamed island off an unnamed coast, objects are disappearing: first hats, then ribbons, birds, roses - until things become much more serious. Most of the island's inhabitants are oblivious to these changes, while those few imbued with the power to recall the lost objects live in fear of the draconian Memory Police, who are committed to ensuring that what has disappeared remains forgotten. When a young woman who is struggling to maintain her career as a novelist discovers that her editor is in danger from the Memory Police, she concocts a plan to hide him beneath her floorboards.

Disturbing
This was a fantastic look at a potential reality.
It was a gruesome, heart wrenching read that makes you wonder how far we would go to survive and be happy.

Want a part 2
The story is good, but I guess I would have liked more details. Maybe a sequel? I’d read that too.
I also find myself wishing to hear from a woman protagonist as her experience in this world would be so different from Marcos’.

Unflinchingly ugly
The narrator is a repulsive hypocritical man, and the world it paints is grotesque and perverted. Theres not so much of a traditional plot, as a sequence of interactions which allow you to see a full scope of the consequences of this world, and allows you to compare it to our current society. What 1984 was to the red scare, It feels like this book is to late stage capitalism and the factory farm industry. I found myself going numb to alot of the body horror because its so abundant, and you definitely need a strong stomach. I did enjoy this book and reccomend it to those who are fans of political horror, that being said its disgusting and i never wanna read it again.

You may or may not regret your experience.
I was never an avid reader in my younger years and it is now clear why. This book will ensnare you, believe me. The narrator is the icing on the cake(understatement). Don't leave this one on the back burner.

This was interesting… a short and disturbing read. A well done book nonetheless. Do not read if you have a fickle stomach.

So Horrific. Best I've Finished in a LONG Time
I just finished and the hair on my arms are prickled. Reminds me of Blindness in how this horror show of a reality became normal. At times, it bends your own take on morality.
Spoiler alert: Moral Cannibalism is better than Black Market cannibalism here.
Well worth the credit as it's the most jaw dropping story I've finished in years.
