Tender Is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica is a disturbing and thought-provoking dystopian novel set in a world where humans are bred and slaughtered as livestock for consumption.

The novel explores themes of power, control, and the grotesque commodification of human life. With its stark and chilling portrayal of a society’s moral decay, Bazterrica forces the reader to confront the darkness of human nature. Tender Is the Flesh is a powerful commentary on the fragility of civilization and the ethical lines we draw.
