Resumen del Editor

Carrion is about a world consumed by chaos. But in this world, you are not a desperate survivor hoping to outlast the bedlam; instead, you are the monster that caused it. Consumed by an insatiable hunger, a malevolent need to feed, you are the one from whom the masses flee. And because of you a group of barbaric men led by a fanatic with a gleaming badge fastened to his chest have banded together with the intention of hunting you and all those like you down. Follow in the footsteps of a fiend. See what he sees. Taste the flesh. Smell the decay. Suffer the anguish. Witness a massive city crumble under the weight of fear and hate and become hell. Whether engulfed in flames, or flooded by lakes of blood, all that remains are monsters and men, and the war that wages not only between them, but within themselves. Following in the path of Jean Paul Satre's Nausea and Dante's Divine Comedy J.R. Rose's Carrion is an epic length prose poem that delves deep into the capitalist psyche. Here is a claustrophobic landscape of heaped flesh, ravenous vermin,and human monsters. Each body in Carrion is possessed by a maddening hunger that Jonathan R. Rose describes viscerally and graphically. What begins as a brutal, relentless effort to fill the stomach becomes another kind of ravenousness, one emotionally rooted but still debilitating. This novel is starvation captured on the page. Alana I. Capria, author of Wrapped in Red and Hooks and Slaughterhouse Unique and soul-shattering -- one of a kind. Nicholas Morine, author of Punish the Wicked and Cavern. This stark, minimalist novel is about existential flesh munching and bone-crunching that conflates heroism and monstrosity. Sure, ‘it is a dog-eat-dog world and the first bite counts.’ All about the free market, El Chapo style. Peter Wiesner, author of Xtremus: a Bionican Quest in the Wake of Cybrergeddon.
