Krátky popis
SHORTLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE 2018WINNER OF
THE INTERNATIONAL PRIZE FOR ARABIC FICTION 'Extraordinary... A
devastating but essential read.' Kevin Powers, bestselling author
and National Book Award finalist for The Yellow Birds'Gripping,
darkly humorous...profound.' Phil Klay, bestselling author and
National Book Award winner for RedeploymentFrom the rubble-strewn
streets of US-occupied Baghdad, the scavenger Hadi collects human
body parts and stitches them together to create a corpse. His goal,
he claims, is for the government to recognize the parts as people
and give them a proper burial.But when the corpse goes missing, a
wave of eerie murders sweeps the city, and reports stream in of a
horrendous-looking criminal who, though shot, cannot be killed.
Hadi soon realises he has created a monster, one that needs human
flesh to survive - first from the guilty, and then from anyone who
crosses its path. An extraordinary achievement, Frankenstein in
Baghdad captures with white-knuckle horror and black humour the
surreal reality of a city at war.
