Why read it?
1 author picked Anatomy as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Easily the goriest of my choices, Schwartz’s story offers readers a bit of everything.
It is a historically set mystery with a bit of gruesome science fiction woven in. Throw in a bit of grave-robbing and a lot of dissection in the name of science, and you have a gothic tale reminiscent of Mary Shelley that explores the challenges of a female scientist fighting to be accepted in world that refuses to permit women to become surgeons.
It manages to be both disturbing and endearing, and a story so well-told that you won’t want to put it down.
From Gabby's list on horror for people who don’t like scary stories.
