dark emotional mysterious sad tense

5.0

This is a slow, atmospheric book about extremely fucked up family relationships. And a death cult 

Enriquez is so good at capturing the voice of different people from different places, eras, economic classes. Even the most monstrous characters feel pathetically human.

Even the most human character carry a monstrous threat

Please give me more fiction with history, occultism, and queerness. I struggled reading this--a balance between binging and lingering on each chapter, each page. I still have questions but maybe they are never meant to have an answer. It was beautiful, haunting, and layered. Selfishly, I want more from this world, this undeniably tragic yet enchanted universe.
