From Publishers Weekly:
This first novel offers a graphic guided tour of the meat-packing and -selling industry from the down-and-out perspective of an ex-preppie, ex-student activist. "Allen has a good ear for raunchy working-class vernacular, but he squanders his obvious literary talents on endless self-rumination, leaving little room for full-bodied characters to emerge," maintained PW.
