Dark and disturbing. Poignant and engulfing. Highly recommend the audiobook version - it is read by the author and includes vocalizations and gives an added layer of depth. See content warnings.

I'm not sure I entirely "got" this book. Some parts were beautiful and descriptive. Others were dry and pretentious.
