Middle class apartment dwellers - a family of three and their babysitter neighbor - are the victims of a bizarre chemical disaster when a truck overturns on the streets of New York one evening. Females are transformed into homicidal monsters, who pursue an unfaithful husband and his innocent son through bars, streets, alleys and their apartment building. Many men, some deserving and some not, are torn to pieces as the story progresses, along with a more than a few monster females on the rampage. Is the mother transformed? Is the baby sitter transformed? Will anyone make it over the GW Bridge to safety? Will the reader be able to see the dark dialogue about our society through the stark and brutally descriptive prose? | ||
