Inhaltsangabe

This unusual and shocking story is about an effective but scandalous way to cope with terminal cancer. It is cannibalism. While not for everyone, only Simeon, a picaresque adventurer, urbane, wealthy, cultivated and highly deviant, who has spent his life transgressing taboos, would try this remedy after he develops cancer and fails to respond to conventional treatment. The successful cannibal cure brings unwelcome complications and notoriety in the Western world. Finally, he returns to the aboriginal tribe that introduced him to cannibalism, back in the Highlands of Papua New Guinea. Along with remission of cancer, he decides to stay with his adopted tribe, where he finds redemption from his old ways.
