Tallenna
As Meat Loves Salt
In the seventeenth century, the English Revolution is under way. The nation, seething with religious and political discontent, has erupted into violence and terror. Jacob Cullen and his fellow soldiers dream of rebuilding their lives when the fighting is over. But the shattering events of war will overtake them.
A darkly erotic tale of passion and obsession, As Meat Loves Salt is a gripping portrait of England beset by war. It is also a moving portrait of a man on the brink of madness. Hailed as a masterpiece, this is a first novel by a most original new voice in fiction.
A gripping portrait of England caught up in the throes of revolution, Maria McCann’s novel "imaginatively re-creates the mentality of a society racked by war and intoxicated by radical new ideas of freedom and chance" (The Times Literary Supplement).
"Absorbing and historically meticulous. —The Economist
