Description
Sour Cherry is a haunting and unforgettable debut novel by Natalia Theodoridou. The story begins with Agnes, who is called to care for a young boy at a great manor house. As the boy grows, a series of tragic events unfolds, including a plague that seems to follow him everywhere.
The boy's family is plagued by tragedy, with each wife he touches becoming a ghost. The ghosts form a chorus, urging the narrator to explain the truth about the boy and the powerful lord who has led them to ruin. At the heart of the story is a profound exploration of age-old systems of gender and power, and the complicated reasons we stay captive to the monsters we love.
This is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that confronts the darker aspects of human nature. With its unique blend of magical realism and literary fiction, Sour Cherry is a compelling read for fans of atmospheric and unsettling stories.
