Description
A haunting and provocative novel, You Feel It Just Below the Ribs is a fictional autobiography set in an alternate twentieth century. Born at the end of the old world, Miriam grows up during a devastating war that nearly decimates humanity, leaving her with grief and loneliness. As the war ends and a new society arises, Miriam becomes a researcher involved in implementing a detachment process that forbids traditional families. This process has a darkly sinister purpose, and Miriam soon realizes that her involvement has put her own life at risk. As she devises a secret plan to destroy the system from within, she must confront the difficult choices she has made to survive. A jarring and uncanny tale of loss, trauma, and human connection, You Feel It Just Below the Ribs is a portrait of a disturbing alternate world that eerily feels within reach. With its exploration of the human cost of survival and the power of deception, this novel is a thought-provoking and unsettling read.
