Yes. The author is an incredible writer! A lot of long form pieces I’ve tried to read recently just couldn’t hold my attention but this one was a real page turner!
Cannibals are easy fodder for horror movies, books, and games so in this way they’re demonized by our culture. It’s funny to see that we are also demonized by them because of our strange appearance and clothing. One of the most heartwarming parts of the story was when Lepeadon recognized the author as a human and rejoiced, calling him friend.
I hope this piece will have the same effect on some people in our culture, humanizing the Korowai people and helping to spread understanding of their culture.
