"A chilling, thought-provoking journey into madness and the macabre. Not for the faint of heart, but its impact is undeniable."
- Booklist
Married couple Celia and Martin are brutally attacked on their drive through the Irish countryside. The attack leaves Celia with a violent schism in her mind, seemingly existing in two places at once: one the "real" world, the other a howling maelstrom of abstract monstrosity.
Of her husband, there is no trace...until weeks later, when Martin is discovered in a hospital for rare and abnormal diseases, his body spliced together with that of an unknown woman.
And they are very pregnant.
PUPPET'S BANQUET is a "diseased Gothic"; a hallucinatory treatise on medical abuse; the systemic disease of colonialism and patriarchy; and the limits of human perception.
