But you never know. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen a dinosaur's misplaced step flattens Frank the worm's friend, Frank takes the loss in stride. He and his buddies will eat the poor guy-- that's what worms do. They eat dead things and return them to the soil. Someday, Frank's descendants will even eat the dinosaur. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut before it comes to that, there's plenty of time to get to know each other. Even if neither can ultimately protect the other from the world's slings and arrows, the unlikely friendship makes life worthwhile. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA masterclass in dark humor, \u003ci\u003e I Will Eat You in the End\u003c\/i\u003e closes in a life-affirming catharsis it very much earns.
