Michel Faber’s Under the Skin: at once sublime, all-encompassing, meaningful, and being characterised by a certain nonchalant, tempered manner of description or, probably with greater accuracy, a certain sprezzaturra. It was later adapted into a feature film by Jonathan Glazer. He picks up a dead female body and tucks it in a white van. Written by Yasser Owino A man on a motorcycle rides in the middle of the night to a secluded location in Glasgow. A naked woman then proceeds to undress the dead female of all her clothes. At once humane and horrifying, Under the Skin takes us on a heart-thumping ride through dangerous territory - our own moral instincts and the boundaries of compassion.
The novel, which was Faber's debut, was shortlisted for the 2000 Whitbread Award. Under the Skin: Book Review and Analysis.

Set in northern Scotland, it traces an extraterrestrial who, manifesting in human form, drives around the countryside picking up male hitchhikers whom she drugs and delivers to her home planet. Under the Skin is a 2000 science fiction novel by Michel Faber.
Michel Faber's work has been described as a combination of Roald Dahl and Franz Kafka, as Somerset Maugham shacking up with Ian McEwan.
