The Lives of Animals

J M Coetzee


The book is a bit of a vegetarian polemic. The plot structure is quite simple - a woman preparing to give a university lecture. Inside this device, however, are a lot of thoughts about how savage we are to animals. The book is interesting, intelligent and makes a number of interesting links between poets and animals and philosophers and animals.
