"The year's great work of literary horror." —Gretchen Felker-Martin, author of Manhunt
"Sharp and fearless." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"The most stomach-churning, upsetting, thoroughly cursèd queer book of the year." —Alison Rumfitt, author of Tell Me I'm Worthless and Brainwyrms
A feral shut-in discovers a disturbing internet porn video of what seems to be herself. A seance of coked-up artists summons unearthly forces in a studio apartment. The staircase of an exurban marketing company descends endlessly beneath the earth.
In Aoife Josie Clements’ electric, nightmarish, intricately layered novel, the impossibility of goodness crowds in upon two young trans women barely surviving on sex work and zero-hours contracts. Below the familiar evils of capitalism and the bottomless depths of internet culture, a darker horror awaits. What curse follows these women? What are they escaping? What are they running towards?
