The Butcher's Wife has an extraordinary secret: amongst the slaughtered
animals which are hung each day in the cellar of her house, there are
some which still have souls imprisoned inside their carcasses. Deprived
of her freedom and identity by an abusive husband, she must draw upon
her own resources in her struggle to set the dead things free, and seek
her own source of tenderness in the midst of hideous violence. Front
cover picture by Buffarches. Genre: horror/magical realism. Contains
scenes of strong violence and coarse language.
