The Unworthy - Agustina Bazterrica

Descriere The Unworthy - Agustina Bazterrica

A fearsomely dark, incantatory new dystopia set in a post-apocalyptic convent from the author of viral sensation Tender is the Flesh In the House of the Sacred Sisterhood, the unworthy live in fear of the Superior Sister's whip. Seething with resentment, they plot against each other and await who will ascend to the level of the Enlightened - and who will suffer the next exemplary punishment. Risking her life, one of the unworthy keeps a diary in secret. Slowly, memories surface from a time before the world collapsed, before the Sacred Sisterhood became the only refuge. Then Lucia arrives. She, too, is unworthy - but she is different. And her presence brings a single spark of hope to a world of darkness. Barbaric, brutal and utterly beautiful. The Unworthy is a searing haunt of a novel that I will never forget. - Lucy Rose, author of The Lamb Brutal and aching. A perfect fever dream of a book. - Heather Darwent, author of The Things We Do to Our Friends Unflinching, uncompromising, and unforgettable. Agustina Bazterrica shines a light at the end of the brutal and bleak path we are on so that maybe, just maybe, we can turn around and forge a new one. - Paul Tremblay, author of The Cabin at the End of the World
