Written in a series of brief vignettes, Carmen Maria Machado’s memoir takes a brilliant and heartbreaking approach to describing the complexities of being in a queer, abusive relationship.
Every chapter views the relationship from a kaleidoscope of angles, sometimes idealistic, sometimes academic, each gradually revealing layers of dissociation and compartmentalization, which allow the author to, from a safe distance, understand how her story unfolds.
A challenging and magnificent work of art.
