Do you have the, um, appetite for a dystopian novel about a society built on cannibalism? Wait, wait! Maybe you do. I read this chilling and pointedly political novel from Argentina (where it won a prestigious literary award) in a single sitting, and then handed the Every Child Matters Dream Cather Shirt also I will do this galley off to a friend who promptly did the same. (He texted me his review: “I tore through that cannibalism book in two nights. Fun twist at the end.”) A global epidemic has killed all the planet’s animals, leaving humanity to feast on its own for meat. Industrialized plants are set up for this purpose, with a class of humans raised solely as food. Our protagonist, Marcos, is management at one such plant, but he’s wracked with ethical guilt, refuses to eat this so-called “special meat,” and even falls into an unsettling love affair with a woman intended for slaughter. The novel is horrific, yes, but fascinatingly provocative (and Orwellian) in the way it exposes the lengths society will go to deform language and avoid moral truths. – Taylor Antrim

Edie, the Every Child Matters Dream Cather Shirt also I will do this narrator of Luster, is a disaffected twenty-something under-achiever whiling away her desk-job hours by engaging in inappropriate online flirtations and spending her after-hours trying to figure out how to be an artist. The online crush turns into a full-on affair with an older man, semi-sanctioned by his wife, with whom he has an open relationship. Edie visits their bleak suburban house, uninvited—as one does when one is courting a married man—and, through a slightly dubious sequence of events, ends up moving in. The slightly soap opera set-up belies the cleverness of this book, which is narrated with fresh and wry jadedness, Edie’s every disappointment rendered with a comic twist. (“Based on his liberal use of the semicolon, I just assumed this date would go well.”) Edie’s life is a mess, her past is filled with sorrow, she’s wasting her precious youth, and yet, reading about it all is a whole lot of fun. – Chloe Schama
