We’re in France at the brink of the revolution. We’re in France at the brink of the revolution. A sinister Hannibal-Lecter-like character rumoured to be devouring everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, including forks, rats and babies, is imprisoned in a monastery. Sister Perpetue has the unenviable task of guarding him. But who is this mysterious Tarare and what is his story? The Glutton by A.K. Blakemore is a brutal story of poverty and survival, set against the backdrop of revolutionary France. A beautifully crafted novel, it’s one of the notable reads of 2023.
