Summary Note
"'Abandon every hope' is a lament, a damaged encyclopedia, and a diary of anxiety. How can anyone document the vastness of violence against animals in a bloated industrial age? Hayley Singer investigates the literature of the slaughterhouse to map the contours of a world cut to pieces by organised and profitable death. In her compelling and poetic prose, Singer asks how we may write the life of the dead; the smell of an egg factory; of multispecies PTSD; of planetary harm and self-harm; of the horror we make on earth. Where does the slaughterhouse begin and how can it end?" - Back cover.
