Nightbitch by Rachel Yoder
Freedom comes in many forms… 'OUTRAGEOUS, SMART, FUN' Bonnie Garmus ‘FERAL, UNHOLY... NIGHTBITCH IS AN INCREDIBLE FEAT’ Carmen Maria Machado 'BRILLIANT' Stylist One day, the mother was a mother but then, one night, she was quite suddenly something else... At home full-time with her two-year-old son, an artist finds she is struggling. She is lonely and exhausted. Her husband, always travelling for his work, calls her from faraway hotel rooms. One more toddler bedtime, and she fears she might lose her mind. Instead, she starts gaining things, surprising things that happen one night when her child will not sleep. New appetites, new instincts. And from deep within herself, a new voice... 'I TORE THROUGH IT' Lisa McInerney 'FUNNY AND UNNERVING AS HELL' Jenny Offill 'THE SPIRITUAL SUCCESSOR TO ANGELA CARTER' Evening Standard

Yoder's commentary on the assorted neuroses of modern womanhood is graceful and coolly incisive... She infuses new life into the cold, furry flesh of the monstrous femme. -- AK Blakemore * Guardian *
