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” (\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e), \u003ci\u003eFrankenstein in Baghdad\u003c\/i\u003e captures with white-knuckle horror and black humor the surreal reality of contemporary Iraq.","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"STANDARD","offer_id":62234443383171,"sku":"9780143128793","price":18.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/8456\/3587\/files\/9780143128793.jpg?v=1785354421","url":"https:\/\/shopcomics.eu\/products\/frankenstein-in-baghdad-9780143128793","provider":"Shop Comics EU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
