Hungerstone by Kat Dunn
The seductive reimagining of a Gothic classic--a repressed wife encounters a mysterious woman who awakens her desire in the "lesbian vampire novel we need." (Them)NATIONAL BESTSELLER * NPR Best Book of the Year * Goodreads Choice Award Finalist * Book Riot Best Book of the Year
It's the height of the Industrial Revolution, and ten years into Lenore's marriage to steel magnate Henry, their relationship has soured. When Henry's ambitions take them from London to the remote British moorlands, a shocking carriage accident brings the mysterious Carmilla into their lives. Carmilla, who is weak and pale during the day but vibrant at night. Carmilla, who stirs something deep within Lenore.
Soon, girls from the local villages fall sick, consumed by a terrible hunger, and Lenore begins to unravel. Torn between regaining her husband's affection and the cravings Carmilla has awakened, Lenore must confront a darkness that will place her at risk.
This immersive reworking of Carmilla, the queer novella that inspired Dracula, delivers a richly atmospheric look at feminine rage and the desires that feed our hunger.
