« Il est vrai que de manière générale les animaux ne sont pas en mesure de participer à leur libération, mais ils se comportent différemment lorsqu’ils sont libérés et ont de meilleures conditions de vie. »

 Richly illustrated with full-colour paintings and drawings throughout, Cruel conveys the terrible beauty, and intense suffering, of both the animals so sacrificed and the workers involved in their violent destruction.  Aside from factory farming, in Cruel Coe also sets her sights on lesser-known, yet equally shocking, methods involved in commercial fishing, the wool industry, the flagrant use of pesticides, and livestock “protection” collars. 
Cruel includes notes supplementing Coe’s own texts and illustrations by Judy Brody.
