The Cannibal Frames Herself

The Cannibal painter, famous for chewing her canvases and leaving "lovebites" in the paint, recalls the comic years before dementia. When little Coco accidentally sliced the tip of her baby brother's pinky, she tasted it. When she saw Michelangelo's DAVID naked on a calendar, she ate him. When she attended art school, she discovered her talent for eating boyfriends. When she went to Italy to see the original DAVID, she may have knifed and eaten small parts of a young sculptor. When she hid in Paris to paint her terrors, she rented an attic from a sadistic landlady . . . with unspeakable consequences.
