Of Cattle and Men by Brazilian writer Ana Paula Maia, translated by Zoë Perry, is set in a slaughterhouse in an isolated corner of Brazil
Charco Press’s Of Cattle and Men by Brazilian writer Ana Paula Maia, translated by Zoë Perry, has won the Republic of Consciousness prize, which recognises books from small publishers.
The 99-page book, described as a “gut-punch of a novel” by the judge Sana Goyal, is set in a slaughterhouse in an isolated corner of Brazil where cows begin to disappear, seemingly by suicide.
