Beschreibung
Krīga saldētavas galvenais menedžeris Markoss Teho ir šaubu mākts birokrāts. Dienā, kad viņš saņem dāvanā pārtikai audzētu sievieti, iekāre viņa smadzenēs ievelk vēl vienu draudīgu grumbu, kas noved pie slepenas sabiedrībā pieņemto normu pārkāpšanas.
Šajā mulsinošajā distopijā – tikpat brutālā, cik izsmalcinātā, tikpat alegoriskā, cik reālistiskā – Agustinas Basterikas daiļdarba satriecošais spēks
aicina uz pārdomām par dzīvi, kuru dzīvojam šodien.
Agustina Basterrika ir godalgota romānu un stāstu rakstniece, viena no slavenākajām Buenosairesas literārās skatuves personībām. Viņas romāns “Izsmalcināta gaļa” ir tulkots un izdots jau vairāk nekā divdesmit valodās.

I don't know what to say. The book is excellent; not a single dull moment. And the ending blew my mind so little I expected it.My personal tip would be to read this after or before you read Meat by Joseph D'lacey. Trust me, the two books are like twin flames and would give you different perspectives on the same issue.
⭐️3.5-3.75Deeply disturbing and unpleasant content-wise, but completely gripping and intentional. I’ll admit it took me a few chapters to fully understand the new world and how their system worked, but once it clicked, it really clicked, and I couldn’t stop reading.That last chapter… yeah. Men will always be men. I wasn’t fully expecting the ending we got, but I’m satisfied with it because it definitely sparks conversation. Agustina Bazterrica is an incredibly talented writer.This is a very divisive book, which I totally get. You'll either like it, think it’s just fine, or strongly dislike it. Surprisingly, it really worked for me and ended up being a great way to start my 2026.Side note: there’s something about the cover that just does it for me. Like… what a cover.
