Book Synopsis
Lydia Millet’s debut novel, first published in 1996, is an explosive satire that scorches our culture’s monstrous men and institutions.

Trade Review
"All manner of voracious American appetites—for sex, power, and possessions—are darkly lampooned in this strange, often very funny debut." -- Entertainment Weekly
"Omnivores reads like a cartoon with soul." -- Los Angeles Times
"If Flannery O’Connor came back from the dead and abandoned her fixation with Southern religion, she might be proud to write something like Lydia Millet’s astonishing first novel, Omnivores." -- Sun-Sentinel
