Hurricane Season: Fernanda Melchor with Yuri Herrera

[@efleishermedia]

It is criminal how underappreciated this woman is, despite her getting pretty great recognition as far as modern literary fiction goes. But this book, and the truly unique prose and structure she employs, is absolutely visionary. I never thought I'd read something by a modern author that could capture the raw horror and tension and command of prose that I found only in Cormac McCarthy's novels and some of Faulkner's. She is a master in the full sense of the word. If there is any justice left in the art industry, she will be recognized as a new great, a living master whose work will last. I've honestly never read anything quite so alive, so infectious, both beautiful and demonic, evil and cathartic. It's like Faulker meets Ari Aster meets a latina perspective that makes her wholly unique and unequaled
