art-eaters, and family intrigue, for fans of Alice Munro and Shirley

living on land that is always slowly (and sometimes very quickly)
killing them."An inescapable, ferocious dream of a book. Good luck getting out.”—John Elizabeth Stintzi, author of Vanishing Monuments"[The] writing is beautiful... Nightmarish and yet somehow fantastical."—This Magazine
