Description
Jacob Cullen's world is turned upside down when his desire for freedom and connection leads him to take drastic action. As he flees his wedding feast with his new wife and brother, Jacob embarks on a perilous journey that will test his relationships, his sense of self, and the very fabric of society. In 17th-century England, the tensions between Royalists and Parliamentarians are running high, and Jacob finds himself caught in the midst of it all. His growing obsession with revolutionary pamphlets and his own desires for love and acceptance threaten to destroy everything he holds dear. As the stakes rise, Jacob must confront the darkness within himself and the world around him. As Meat Loves Salt is a gripping and unflinching portrayal of a man torn apart by his own contradictions, set against the backdrop of a nation on the brink of chaos.
