As a whole, Poor Deer is an empathetic and imaginative look at the stories that we tell ourselves in order to survive. And the circumstances that push us to develop a complex and self-punishing interior world.
Many thanks to @eccobooks and @netgalley for the eARC of Poor Deer in exchange for my honest review! All thoughts and opinions are my own.
