Description

Dark Matters: A Novel by Susan Hawthorne is a haunting and poetic exploration of the human experience. When Kate is arrested in a dawn raid, her world is turned upside down, leaving her with only fragments of memories to cling to. As she struggles to maintain her sense of self, she finds solace in the stories of her ancestors, weaving together myth and reality to create a narrative of resilience. The novel delves into the dark history of organised violence against lesbians, tracing the threads of fear, uncertainty, and resistance. Through Kate's story, Hawthorne sheds light on the power of writing as a means of survival and self-expression. This is a powerful and unflinching portrayal of the human spirit in the face of adversity. A deeply personal and thought-provoking work, Dark Matters is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in exploring the complexities of identity, trauma, and the human condition.
