Ravishingly beautiful ObserverExcruciatingly honest and yet vibrantly creative Irish TimesProvocative and rich EconomistDaring, chilling, and unlike anything else youve ever read EsquireAn absolute must-read StylistWINNER OF THE RATHBONES FOLIO PRIZE 2021In the Dream House is Carmen Maria Machados engrossing and wildly innovative account of a relationship gone bad. Tracing the full arc of a harrowing experience with a charismatic but volatile woman, this is a bold dissection of the mechanisms and cultural representations of psychological abuse.Each chapter views the relationship through a different lens, as Machado holds events up to the light and examines them from distinct angles. She casts a critical eye over legal proceedings, fairy tales, Star Trek and Disney villains, as well as iconic works of film and fiction, infusing all with her characteristic wit, playfulness and openness to enquiry. The result is a powerful book that explodes our ideas about what a memoir can do and be.
