Voracious follows a year in the life of a young woman caring for her dying grandmother in the company of her grandfather, of her friend, of plants, and of animals – from cats to flies, dogs to ants. Meanwhile, their small village, which echoes with noises from the nearby slaughterhouse, is threatened by a landslide.
Małgorzata Lebda guides us through the countryside, changing seasons, wildlife, illness, death and love. Everything is at once fragile and full of life, animate and inanimate. Full of profound emotional truths, this book signals the arrival of a new international talent.
