Reviews
Praise for National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 prize honoree K-Ming Chang "[K-Ming Chang has the] ability to take a common, decidedly earthbound, experience and transform it through her lens into a fantastical, otherworldly encounter." -- San Francisco Chronicle "One of our most enchanting storytellers today . . . From every first sentence, she has you hooked." --Literary Hub "Chang is singular amongst us all. . . . [She] not only accomplishes narrative reinvention in her writing--she builds upon what feels achievable on the page. Chang shows us different ways of being." --Bryan Washington for Electric Literature " Organ Meats is one of those rarenovels that immediately seizes your attention because of its ferocity, its rawness, and its sheer poetic brilliance. A haunting and feverish exploration of a very complex (and somewhat disturbing) friendship, I read this book wide eyed with such wonder. My breath became ragged and loose as I raced through chapter after chapter. Every page of this book is an untreated, blackening wound, each printed word is sharp enough to draw the darkest blood. Certainly one of the most inventive and visceral novelists I've encountered in quite some time, K-Ming Chang's imagination is as rich as it is boundless. I am now a devoted fan." --Eric LaRocca, author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke "Magnificent . . . Chang's hallucinogenic prose is wild and alive, a savage yawp of liberating beastliness in the face of all that would seek to yoke her heroes to the dreary laws of man. Exhibiting her surreal bona fides, Chang proves herself a worthy heir to Leonora Carrington and Unica Zürn." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review, Praise for National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 prize honoree K-Ming Chang "[K-Ming Chang has the] ability to take a common, decidedly earthbound, experience and transform it through her lens into a fantastical, otherworldly encounter." -- San Francisco Chronicle "One of our most enchanting storytellers today . . .

Chang shows us different ways of being." --Bryan Washington for Electric Literature, Praise for National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 prize honoree K-Ming Chang "This is a novel full of animal yearning, a novel that places women at the center, nosing into their silences, licking at their damaged places . . . This novel feels like Chang's stab at finding that language, digging it out of her body like a buried dog tooth, accompanied by a fine spray of blood." -- The New York Times "[K-Ming Chang has the] ability to take a common, decidedly earthbound, experience and transform it through her lens into a fantastical, otherworldly encounter." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Wow, wow, wow. If you loved the weirdness of Chang's Bestiary and Gods of Want , you will love this one because it's even weirder. Chang is a master of beautiful gore, questionable relationships and surreal realism." --Ms. Magazine, October 2023 Book Roundup "Perfect combination of really descriptive, gory, intense scenes, but also with really beautiful writing." --WBEZ/Nerdette, A Bounty of Fall Books "[An] intimate and visceral new novel." --Nylon, October 2023 Must-Read Books Roundup "Girlhood has a feral quality . . . Chang conjures magic in her fiction, stretching the bounds of reality and blurring the lines between human girls and wild dogs." --San Francisco Chronicle, 25 Highly Anticipated Books to Put on Your Radar this Fall "Magnificent . . . Chang's hallucinogenic prose is wild and alive, a savage yawp of liberating beastliness in the face of all that would seek to yoke her heroes to the dreary laws of man.

Synopsis
"In the phenomenal Organ Meats , two friends are bound by a red string, dog bloodlines, and the violence that is being a girl" ( Ms. magazine)--from the National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 honoree and author of Gods of Want. " Organ Meats possesses something of the febrile intensity of Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan novels, their laser focus on female friendship, but instead of Naples, K-Ming Chang's wild girls inhabit a magical universe of talking dogs and shape-shifting body parts."-- The New York Times (Editors' Choice) LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FINALIST * AN AUTOSTRADDLE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR Best friends Anita and Rainie find refuge by an old sycamore tree with its neighboring lot of stray dogs who have a mysterious ability to communicate with humans. The girls learn that they are preceded by generations of dog-headed women and woman-headed dogs whose bloodlines bind them together. Anita convinces Rainie to become a dog with her, tying a collar of red string around each of their necks to preserve their kinship forever. But when the two girls are separated, Anita sinks into a dreamworld that only Rainie knows how to rescue her from. As Anita's body begins to rot, it is up to Rainie to rebuild Anita's body and keep her friend from being lost forever. Filled with ghosts and bodily entrails, this is a story about the horror and beauty of intimacy, written in K-Ming Chang's signature poetic and visceral lore., "In the phenomenal Organ Meats , two friends are bound by a red string, dog bloodlines, and the violence that is being a girl" ( Ms. magazine)--from the National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 honoree and author of Gods of Want.

- _***s (6)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoWhen I'd originally placed this order, I had accidentally put in the wrong shipping address. However, the seller was more than helpful, and the CD arrived!! The packaging was wide open when it arrived, but luckily nothing was damaged. Additionally, there was nothing protective on the CD, so that open package made me feel kind of nervous. Otherwise, absolutely great! The customer service was awesome, and the product was as described.
- r***w (226)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoItem was lost in delivery- but after some communication, seller was understanding and provided a refund. I ordered another and had it sent elsewhere. My main issue was that it felt as if I was getting automated responses at first!! Please have humans review human inquiries!! It was painstaking explaining the situation to an A.I. who only repeats unhelpful replies. Thanks again!! Otherwise. Great price! Great seller!
- a***a (346)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoThis hardback book is of the highest quality, has a fine appearance , arrived in perfect condition, and is an excellent value. On what I was not asked about this time, communicating with the seller would have required using email outside of the eBay system, because they do not accept eBay messages, the book was well packed in a purpose-designed cardboard box, the shipping was faster than I expected for the bound media rate, and the book was exactly as described and pictured.Tameshigiri - The History and Development of Japanese Sword Testing by Sesko (N° 282906424466)
