Resumen del Editor

Sister Perpetue is not to move. She is not to fall asleep. She is to sit, keeping guard over the patient’s room. She has heard the stories of his hunger, which defy belief: that he has eaten all manner of creatures and objects. A child even, if the rumours are to be believed. But it is hard to believe that this slender, frail man is the one they once called The Great Tarare, The Glutton of Lyon.

Before, he was just Tarare. Well-meaning and hopelessly curious, born into a world of brawling and sweet cider, to a bereaved mother and a life of slender means. When a sudden act of violence sees Tarare cast out and left for dead, his ferocious appetite is ignited.

Following Tarare as he travels from the South of France to Paris and beyond, through the heart of the Revolution, The Glutton is an electric, heart-stopping journey into a world of tumult, upheaval and depravity, wherein the hunger of one peasant is matched only by the insatiable demands of the people of France.

'An audacious and humane study of desire, pain and tenderness.' (Keiran Goddard, author of Hourglass)

'It will have you squirming between sympathy and revulsion, pleasure and pain.' (Alex Hyde, author of Violets)
