批評家のレビュー
“This is a novel full of animal yearning, a novel that places women at the center, nosing into their silences, licking at their damaged places . . . This novel feels like Chang’s stab at finding that language, digging it out of her body like a buried dog tooth, accompanied by a fine spray of blood.” —The New York Times
“Wow, wow, wow. If you loved the weirdness of Chang’s Bestiary and Gods of Want, you will love this one because it’s even weirder. Chang is a master of beautiful gore, questionable relationships and surreal realism.” —Ms. Magazine, October 2023 Book Roundup
“Perfect combination of really descriptive, gory, intense scenes, but also with really beautiful writing.” —WBEZ/Nerdette, A Bounty of Fall Books
あらすじ・解説
“In the phenomenal Organ Meats, two friends are bound by a red string, dog bloodlines, and the violence that is being a girl” (Ms. magazine)—from the National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 honoree and author of Gods of Want.
“Organ Meats possesses something of the febrile intensity of Elena Ferrante’s Neapolitan novels, their laser focus on female friendship, but instead of Naples, K-Ming Chang’s wild girls inhabit a magical universe of talking dogs and shape-shifting body parts.”—The New York Times (Editors’ Choice)
LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FINALIST • AN AUTOSTRADDLE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR
Best friends Anita and Rainie find refuge by an old sycamore tree with its neighboring lot of stray dogs who have a mysterious ability to communicate with humans. The girls learn that they are preceded by generations of dog-headed women and woman-headed dogs whose bloodlines bind them together. Anita convinces Rainie to become a dog with her, tying a collar of red string around each of their necks to preserve their kinship forever. But when the two girls are separated, Anita sinks into a dreamworld that only Rainie knows how to rescue her from. As Anita’s body begins to rot, it is up to Rainie to rebuild Anita’s body and keep her friend from being lost forever.
Filled with ghosts and bodily entrails, this is a story about the horror and beauty of intimacy, written in K-Ming Chang’s signature poetic and visceral lore.
