I actually was unsure about this book and only picked it up because of the cannibalism plot. This book was deeper than that and the MC is the perfect allegory of how we are when it comes to eating meat. He hated how the heads were treated in the slaughterhouse and how the other people saw them as just a piece of meat. At the end of the day, there was nothing he could do to change the way society lived and he used his female and got rid of her as soon as he was done. Just like how humans take care of livestock because we need something from them. This was a crazy book.
