This Vicious Hunger
by Francesca May
Francesca May authors a novel that satiates a hunger for poisonous gardens, sapphic love, and the gothic diction so elaborately written you will not put this down. Soaking this novel in word for word satiates a desire that dives into the reality of first time sapphic relationships. Do we feel guilty for revoking our heteronormative appearances when we become the toxicity in sapphic narratives? I think these novel answers that question from a perspective of thirsting for something more and always needing to find more to fulfill that craving.
Such a vibrant description that really sets this fantasy apart from others. From the darkness of the garden to between the protagonist thighs – the descriptions are professionally written with eloquence and dainty precision. So much action occurs without it happening simultaneously. Take your time reading each decorated line to truly unravel the horrors of coming to terms with our desires. What is truly the hunger for knowledge or research or at the core what do we gain from it?
The cover presents an antiquated anticipation of what the garden will have the audience explore. This was an absolute must to utterly understand the deception of the human condition. The comparison of the human condition with a garden expresses the ways in which delicacies no longer manifest in our frame of mind and they then become twisted for overconsumption. This garden is beautiful but becomes deadly in the hands of too much satiation! A steamy lesbian romance with a hint of toxicity – but a well-written one at that.
The garden flowers dying are a metaphor for the grace that runs away when we forget how to ground our satiation with bits of knowledge at a time. Overconsumption takes over our thoughts, our actions, and our mental state. This narrative is a notable example of how the human condition overwhelms itself and becomes the monster in the end. Carmilla minus the vampires meets a botanist student on Dorian Gray fashion. Thank you Net Galley and Redhook for the opportunity to review this digital arc in advance.
