What readers are saying about this book
Summarized by Pango AI
PangoBooks readers have mixed feelings about Cassandra Khaw’s horror novella. They highlight its poetic and lush prose, though some find the language difficult to grasp and the story hard to follow. The novella is noted for its heavy themes of body horror and mutilation, particularly involving children, which some found engaging while others were left confused or disappointed. The characters, especially the plague doctor, received praise and added depth to the narrative for many readers. Despite the vivid and often unsettling descriptions, the story is appreciated for its unique tone and emotional depth, balanced between gory horror and poetic beauty.
