A review by elizabethfisher
In the Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado

5.0

Wow. Just wow. Even though this memoir deals with a difficult subject that was so hard to read, Machado has constructed a truly incredible book. If I could have, I probably would have highlighted almost every line of this one. The style, the pacing, the mix of personal experience and scholarship, the just unflinching rawness of it all...speechless.
