Eating Mammals (2004) is John Barlow’s debut book, a collection of three novellas that announced him as a writer with a taste for the strange and darkly funny. The title novella follows a man with an extraordinary ability to eat anything, including things that should not be eaten. The other two stories are equally unexpected in their premises.

The collection was well received and shortlisted for several prizes. It established the mix of dark humor, strong plotting, and oddball characters that would carry through Barlow’s later crime fiction and literary novels.
