Boyle,\u003cbr\u003eSteven Millhauser, and Michel Faber -- with a penchant for\u003cbr\u003ethe macabre worthy of Irvine Welsh -- comes Eating Mammals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Gypsies, businessmen, servants, masters, and unwise children come together in three mythical tales from Victorian England. Eating Mammals evokes a lost time and place in which the realm of the magical seems almost too possible: a winged cat wreaks havoc in a Yorkshire workhouse and then in the minds of a succession of owners; a famed stunt eater introduces his apprentice, Captain Gusto, to the delicate art of devouring anything for a living; a blooming romance between two meat-pie makers leads thirty-two adorned donkeys to the altar. Wholly original and as assured as folklore, Eating Mammals marks the arrival of a very distinctive new voice.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Barlow","offers":[{"title":"Trade Paperback","offer_id":51670941991218,"sku":"9780060591755","price":11.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/7934\/0850\/files\/9780060591755.jpg?v=1787959909","url":"https:\/\/53rdstreetbooks.com\/products\/eating-mammals-three-novellas","provider":"53rd Street Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
