A punishing and poignant, MEAT EATERS by Meredith McClaren is about the monsters that lurk both in the darkness beyond—and within us all.
All 19-year-old Ashley Moore wanted was to keep her head down and work hard until she could escape the small town where she felt she was stagnating. But after waking up one night covered in blood—and irrevocably dead—Ashley finds her foolproof plan for getting out has gone up in smoke, and something within her has changed.
In this visceral story about the effects of trauma and anxiety, dying is indeed hard. But getting on with it? That can be worse.
