Tell Me I'm Worthless by Alison Rumfitt
4.0
Disturbing psychosexual gothic horror about British fascism and (trans)misogyny. A thorough and terrifying exploration of the logics of fascism and its effects psychologically and interpersonally. Through this nightmare-like fictional exploration, British transmisogyny and fascism and the ways the two are interlinked is easier to grasp as an American reader. Some of the metaphors feel a little on the nose, but that’s a small quibble with what is otherwise a creative and deeply disturbing text. Nicky Endres’ narration of the audiobook is masterful, too, particularly the voicing of the house.
