Book menu for Tarantula (The Skin I Inhabit) by Thierry Jonquet

ISBN of edition I read: 2070408019 (paperback, french language)

This is a brilliantly written novel that will stay with you for days after reading it.  It is haunting, intelligent, nonlinear, and very disturbing.  I can't wait to see the film adaptation with Antonio Banderas.
