About this item
"Northwood's mesmerizing alchemy is this: pain desire the deep, dark woods = a book so addictive you will inhale it in one breath. Meijer has made her own form, something new and wide-open, something as blissful and broken as the language of lovesickness itself." -- Samantha Hunt, author of The Dark Dark "This strange and beautiful novelal has everything I want: formal play, myths and fairy tales, the politics of art-making, the all-obliterating power and complexity of desire, a cabin in the woods. I can't wait to see what Maryse Meijer does next." -- Carmen Maria Machado, author of Her Body and Other Parties Part fairy tale, part horror story, Northwood is a genre-breaking novella told in short, brilliant, beautifully strange passages.
