Synopsis

For fans of Gillian Flynn and Tender is the Flesh

Of Flesh And Tears is a genre-bending psychological thriller about a woman whose fragile mental health is thrown into turmoil by the aggression of man and beast.

Following a painful divorce and a stint in a psychiatric hospital, Claire leaves Paris to take over the family farm. With neither support nor experience, she realizes that her fresh start won't be as easy as she'd anticipated.

She searches for meager comfort in Lucien, a vegan activist, who entrusts her with chickens seized from an animal testing research center for her to hide. He even persuades her to participate in his militant group's radical and dangerous activities. Claire's already fragile equilibrium is thrown into turmoil by the aggression of man and of beast. She soon discovers these chickens might be dangerous, threatening any animal and human who gets too close...

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

L.M. Rapp is the author of "Of Flesh and Tears", "Discordant Hearts", "A Question of Scent", and "Dreadful Beauty". Since childhood, she's been both troubled and fascinated by the animal side of human beings, and the small gap that sometimes separates our so-called civilized world from nature. Where does the animal end and the human begin? She explores this duality, as magnificent as it is monstrous, through her novels and short stories. It is perhaps because we are all, to varying degrees, chimeras.
