This was a beautifully tragic grief horror novel that follows Thiago, a man dealing with the loss of his wife. Strange things took place in their condo prior to her death, and post her death, things get wild. This truly is a psychological horror with brief moments of comic relief. The massive chapters almost read like letters to a dead wife, and was both unsettling (as if you were a spectator into their marriage) while also soothing in the grief process.
