The Raw Shark Texts


"The Ludovician fish is a predator, a shark. It feeds on human memories and the intrinsic sense of self. Ludovicians are solitary, fiercely territorial and methodical hunters. A Ludovician might select an individual human being as its prey animal, and pursue and feed on that individual over the course of years, until that victim's memory and identity have been completely consumed. Sometimes, the target's body survives this ordeal and may go on to live a second twilight life after the original self and memories have been taken. In time, such a person may establish a 'bolt on' identity of their own, but the Ludovician will eventually catch the scent of this and return to complete its kill."


Um livro estranho, sobre um tubarão metafísico, que se alimenta da memória e da identidade das pessoas. Hum...

Mas é simpático o autor incluir na sua página do MySpace referências aos problemas de conservação dos tubarões.
