*Man Booker International Prize finalist* "Brave and ingenious."
-The New York Times "Gripping, darkly humorous . . . profound."
-Phil Klay, bestselling author and National Book Award winner for
Redeployment "Extraordinary . . . A devastating but essential
read." -Kevin Powers, bestselling author and National Book Award
finalist for The Yellow Birds From the rubble-strewn streets of
U.S.-occupied Baghdad, Hadi-a scavenger and an oddball fixture at a
local cafe-collects human body parts and stitches them together to
create a corpse. His goal, he claims, is for the government to
recognize the parts as people and to give them proper burial. But
when the corpse goes missing, a wave of eerie murders sweeps the
city, and reports stream in of a horrendous-looking criminal who,
though shot, cannot be killed. Hadi soon realizes he's created a
monster, one that needs human flesh to survive-first from the
guilty, and then from anyone in its path. A prizewinning novel by
"Baghdad's new literary star" (The New York Times), Frankenstein in
Baghdad captures with white-knuckle horror and black humor the
surreal reality of contemporary Iraq.
