Description
Sawney Bean is a fable based on the true story of an eighteenth-century cannibal. This 1970 edition tells the tale of a family who lived in isolation, surviving by hunting and eating wild animals. The story has been retold in various forms over the years, but this version remains a thought-provoking exploration of human nature and the consequences of our actions. With its simple yet effective narrative, Sawney Bean is a gripping and unsettling read that raises important questions about morality and survival. With just 100 pages, this paperback edition is a concise and compact introduction to this infamous tale.
