From her cell in a mysterious convent, a woman writes the story of her life in whatever she can find-discarded ink, dirt, and even her own blood. A lower member of the Sacred Sisterhood, deemed an unworthy, she dreams of ascending to the ranks of the Enlightened at the center of the convent and of pleasing the foreboding Superior Sister. Outside, the world is plagued by catastrophe-cities are submerged underwater, electricity and the internet are nonexistent, and bands of survivors fight and forage in a cruel, barren landscape. Inside, the narrator is controlled, punished, but safe.
But when a stranger makes her way past the convent walls, joining the ranks of the unworthy, she forces the narrator to consider her long-buried past-and what she may be overlooking about the Enlightened. As the two women grow closer, the narrator is increasingly haunted by questions about her own past, the environmental future, and her present life inside the convent. How did she get to the Sacred Sisterhood? Why can't she remember her life before? And what really happens when a woman is chosen as one of the Enlightened?

dystopian, yet horrifyingly familiar
What a tormenting , yet brutally beautiful read! Written as a journal, with vague thoughts, crossed-out words and pending sentences, it blends themes of idealogical extremism, gendered hierarchies, structural violence, and post-collapse despair. Pondering the power of love and hate, and how both change a person, and imbued with a haunting eeriness and subtle tension, it lingers in the uncomfortable space between fiction and a dystopian reality that isn't entirely implausible. Maybe it's a given when reading horror novels, but be sure to check the content warnings beforehand! Circe broke me so much, my heart is still bleeding. -

words that are forbidden, words with sharp teeth, words of fire
We all love a good post-apocalypse. This is an achingly metaphorical and visionary tale of depravity, cruelty and love despite the horror. A horrific vision of the future set after our world has been left to burn, told in a lyrical, sharp writing style. -

Oh Circe, My Circe
This book ripped me into a thousand pieces. It’s such a beautiful yet very emotional and painful story about a woman being stuck in a cult. The writing style is so unique; you are reading the main character's thoughts and feelings in such an interesting way. A lot of the plot was up for interpretation, but I personally think most of it was obvious (in a good way). This book is for everyone who loves reading about queer women, literary fiction, and horror. But I recommend checking content warnings because it is heavy content. -

I demand justice for Circe!
From the author of "Tender is the flesh" comes this dystopian religious cult queer horror. I was completly captivated by the writing. The story structure just kept drawing me in and I could not put this book down. The ending was especially gripping, not because it was unexpected by any means, but because I had just hoped that my suspiciouns weren't true. Because this book was very lyrically written, a lot was left up for interpretation but personally that does not bother me and only added to the mystery of it all. Also justice for my girl Circe, man...
