"Etter brilliantly, viciously lays bare what it means to be a woman in the world, what it means to hurt, to need, to want, so much it consumes everything." —Roxane Gay, author of Bad Feminist
"I loved every page of this gorgeous, grotesque, heartbreaking novel." —Carmen Maria Machado, author of Her Body & Other Parties
"Sarah Rose Etter's The Book of X is a difficult book to categorize. It is entirely itself, although it shares affinities with absurdism, the new weird, & the lineage of feminist coming-of-age novels. Etter’s novel brings to mind idiosyncratic masterpieces like Joy Williams’s The Changeling."
—Kate Durbin, Los Angeles Review of Books
A surreal exploration of one woman's life & death against a landscape of meat, office desks, & bad men.
The Book of X tells the tale of Cassie, a girl born with her stomach twisted in the shape of a knot. From childhood with her parents on the family meat farm, to a desk job in the city, to finally experiencing love, she grapples with her body, men, & society, all the while imagining a softer world than the one she is in. Twining the drama of the everyday — school-age crushes, paying bills, the sickness of parents — with the surreal — rivers of thighs, men for sale & fields of throats—Cassie’s realities alternate to create a blurred, fantastic world of haunting beauty.
