Cursed Bread by Sophie Mackintosh

3.0

What a strange and intriguing little book. Inspired by the mass poisoning that occurred in the small French town Pont-Saint-Esprit in 1951, Macintosh conjures a story of desire and discontent. The payoff for a lot of introspection and no plot is a wonderful final scene of mania and chaos. Macintosh’s writing intrigues me though I must admit I didn’t fully love this reading experience.
