$14.95I think Doig is a great writer. This one takes place in 1906 prairie Montana with a widower and his three sons. It’s the year of Halley’s Comet and Mark Twain’s death, and the boys are wowed by their new teacher, Morrie Morgan, a man with secrets and on the lam.

Like many teenagers, Foer spent much of his young adult years oscillating between omnivore and vegetarian, confused about his position. But on the brink of fatherhood, responsible for the dietary choices of another being, his casual questioning took on urgency. Carefully researched and written in the same compelling humor and style of Everything is Illuminated and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, Eating Animals is a mix of philosophy, literature, science, memoir, and Foer's own detective work, exploring the many fictions we use to justify our eating habits.
