Cannibalism in literature

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
This article is listed as a C-class article, and as a reoccurring theme in literature as well as its interest cross-culturally, it is important. However, the article largely focuses on Western literature, without discussing why cannibalism in literature is more prominent in the West, or even if it is.

Evaluate the article
The lead section of the article is both too specific and too vague. It contains specific information not mentioned in the rest of the article, but it doesn't introduce the rest of the sections in the article. The specific examples of cannibalism in literature, based on how the rest of the article is sectioned off, would be better situated in the European or North American literature sections. The entire section for African literature is missing, and the other sections are specifically focused on a handful of examples. Specifically, the majority of the American literature subsection is dedicated to Toni Morrison, providing a detailed look at her use of cannibalism, but there's no Canadian literature section at all. The section of South American literature is also light, having only one sentence in it. A significant portion of the sources are the texts mentioned themselves, not peer-reviewed sources about the texts. The lead section of the article only cites European sources, but the article purports to cover global literature. There's no discussion on the talk page, but it is listed as a C-class article, part of both the Anthropology and Literature WikiProjects.
