Nightbitch

One day, the mother was a mother but then, one night, she was quite suddenly something else…

New appetites, new instincts. And from deep within herself, a new voice… With its clear eyes on contemporary womanhood and sharp take on structures of power, Nightbitch is an outrageously original, joyfully subversive read that will make you want to howl in laughter and recognition.
