Abandon Every Hope: Essays for the Dead by Hayley Singer

Book Description

Secondhand. Near fine condition.

Hayley Singer investigates the literature of the slaughterhouse to map the contours of a world cut to pieces by organised and profit-driven death. In her compelling and poetic prose, Singer asks how we may write about the life of the dead, the smell of an egg factory, multispecies PTSD, planetary harm, self-harm, and the horror we make on earth. Where does the slaughterhouse begin, and how can it end? (publisher blurb))
