“Elegantly written, thoughtful, intensely personal yet universal. Destined to become a classic.” — Nicolette Hahn Niman, author of Righteous Porkchop: Finding a Life and Good Food Beyond Factory Farms “Both a personal tale of how one man comes to terms with the meat on his plate and a historical look at humanity’s connection to animals, delivers new insight in the too-often simplistic vegetarian-versus-carnivore argument.” — Novella Carpenter, author of Farm City: The Education of an Urban Farmer “Bull’s-eye! Cerulli cuts through forests of argument with a thoughtful and thrilling narrative. We experience his growing awareness of what it means to be fully involved in the web of nature. With him we can wonder at its complex mystery and share in ‘mindful eating’ as a sacred act.” — Betty Fussell, author of The Story of Corn and Raising Steaks About the Author: Tovar Cerulli awarded a graduate school fellowship by the University of Massachusetts-Amherst in 2009, where he is researching diverse perspectives on human relationships with the natural world. He lives in Vermont with his wife, Catherine. Visit his webiste at www.tovarcerulli.com.
