A fever dream of a story- American horror story meets white lotus (only in the way you know something bad will happen but not sure to who or what!) a true carnival of a book… not for the faint of heart with many potentially triggering scenes, but even with how graphic this book is, the poetry in the narrative really has you reflect on marginalized communities and being on “the defensive”
