Human Cuisine addresses one of the key points about cannibalism: It's fascinating. The stories, essays, poetry, and drama in this anthology reveal that cannibalism can also be disgusting, sometimes frightening, sometimes hysterically funny, sometimes touching—but always interesting, at least once you get past the gag reflex. Co-editors Ken Albala and Gary Allen have assembled an anthology of writings that is guaranteed to give the curious reader something meaty to chew upon.
