"So what sorts of books does a cannibalistic serial killer with refined tastes collect? The works that line his shelves would be rare, beautiful, and reflective of a man with an interest in anatomy (albeit for unorthodox purposes) and psychology. A look at Hannibal Lecter’s rare book collection is a look at some of the most beautiful and occasionally unsettling medical works that have been printed from the late 15th century onward."
