"Bazterrica’s writing is ferocious she has vision and intent. “This translated prizewinner by Argentinian novelist Bazterrica exquisitely dishes up an intricate tale of a systematized dystopian society… a sagacious and calculated exploration of the limits of moral ambiguity it sears and devastates.” and a book that will stick with you for a long time." "Propulsive and deranged, Tender Is the Flesh is a weird and quick read that strays far enough from our current reality to be utterly engrossing. An unrelentingly dark and disquieting look at the way societies conform to committing atrocities.”
“It is a testament to Bazterrica’s skill that such a bleak book can also be a page-turner.
"A ruthlessly clever, Orwellian satire of our dog-eat-dog, er, man-eat-man modern world." “Taut and thought-provoking.a chilling and alarmingly prophetic book.this is an urgent cautionary tale.timely, crucial.” "The novel is horrific, yes, but fascinatingly provocative (and Orwellian) in the way it exposes the lengths society will go to deform language and avoid moral truths." “From the first words of the Argentine novelist Agustina Bazterrica’s second novel, Tender Is the Flesh, the reader is already the livestock in the line, reeling, primordially aware that this book is a butcher’s block, and nothing that happens next is going to be pretty.” WINNER OF ARGENTINA’S CLARÍN NOVELA PRIZE 2017 PRAISE FOR TENDER IS THE FLESH BY AGUSTINA BAZTERRICA
