NECROLOGY

“This book is beautiful. A feminist tale that imagines witches directly connected to the Earth, so much so, they are called ‘Dirty.’

Through a long-ago pact with the ‘blackcoats’ - religious men - women gave up their magic in exchange for remaining unharassed.

Hundreds of years later, one woman, Whitetail, sprouts horns and exhibits strange and terrifying behavior. Is it her, or is it her absorbed twin who sometimes possesses her and spits generations of pent-up rage through her mouth?

When Whitetail thwarts an attempted rape with help of a cast-iron skillet, the offender drops dead. Was it the bang on the head she gave him, or the curse her daughter shouted as he stumbled out the door?

Rich mythology, harrowing scenes, and genuinely terrifying moments make this a perfect novel for witchy season.

Come to this event, meet Meg, hear a great conversation with fellow author Meghan Arcuri, and let’s kick off SPOOKY SEASON right.”
