About the author

Issei Sagawa

18 books56 followers
Issei Sagawa was a murderer and cannibal turned best-selling author and Japanese media sensation.

He moved from Japan to Paris as a post-grad student to study literature at the renowned Sorbonne Academy. There he met his victim and classmate. He lured her to his apartment by telling her that he needed help with translating French poetry. Against warnings of her friends that described Sagawa as 'creepy' she decided to help him. It would be her last and most fatal mistake.

Sagawa later confessed to murdering and cannibalizing her. After only 15 months of incarceration, he was let free due to a legal loophole. He went back to Japan where he has enjoyed becoming a best selling author and a media sensation. He has been linked to eight other disappearances of women back in Paris.

Sagawa died of complications of pneumonia at the age of 73 on November 24, 2022.

I'd rather read a leftist progressive "social justice" book--and that's saying something.

This book is not good at all and the man who has written it is SICK in the worst way I will not tell why but I think you should read about him
