Beschreibung

<b>'Irresistable.' </b>Megan Abbott<br><b>'A gory, gorgeous feast of a book.' </b>Kiran Millwood Hargrave<br><b>'This book is crazy. You have to read it.' </b><i>Bon Appetit</i><br><br>Dorothy Daniels has always had a voracious - and adventurous - appetite. From her idyllic farm-to-table childhood (homegrown tomatoes, thick slices of freshly baked bread) to the heights of her career as a food critic (white truffles washed down with Barolo straight from the bottle) Dorothy has never been shy about indulging her exquisite tastes - even when it lead to her plunging an ice pick into her lover's neck.<br><br>There is something inside Dorothy that makes her different from everybody else. Something she's finally ready to confess. But beware: her story just might make you wonder how <i>your </i>lover would taste sautéed with shallots and mushrooms and deglazed with a little red wine.<br><br>'An <b>unapologetic, rollicking satire </b>of one woman's insatiable appetite.' <i>Irish Times</i><br>'<b>Thrilling and awful</b>.' <i>The Times</i><br><i>'</i>One of the most <b>uniquely fun and campily gory </b>books in my recent memory.' <i>New York Times</i><br><i>'</i><b>Riotously funny and deliriously unhinged</b>.' <i>Refinery29</i><br><br><b>READERS ARE DEVOURING <i>A CERTAIN HUNGER</i>:</b><br><br>'<b>Decadent, sleazy, visceral, disgusting.</b> I can't believe this is a first novel.'<br><br><b><i>'</i></b>If a female Hannibal starred in <i>Orange is the New Black</i>, it would give you a pretty good idea of what to expect from this novel. ... I could write pages about how much I loved this book but it would still not do it justice. <b>Just read it!</b>'<br><br>'This was <b>everything I wanted from a book</b>. Exciting, funny, gory, and most of all the absolutely exquisite writing.'<br><br>'<b>I loved this book from beginning to end</b>, it was dark, humorous and also made me a feel a little queasy in places!'
