A disturbing and atmospheric literary horror novel about sisterhood, obsession, and the terrifying loss of control over our own bodies.

Following the breakdown of a troubled relationship, Brooke travels to Vancouver to care for her sister Izzy, who is preparing for reproductive surgery. But Izzy's deteriorating apartment building is far from the safe haven Brooke had hoped for, particularly with a sinister elderly woman known as Medusa lurking in its corridors.

Seeking comfort in the horror films her former girlfriend loved, Brooke begins to notice unsettling similarities between the terrifying scenes on screen and the strange events unfolding around her.

As tensions between the sisters grow and Brooke starts experiencing disturbing physical symptoms, Izzy's concern develops into something increasingly obsessive. Soon, the boundaries between their identities begin to blur, leaving them questioning what is real and what might be happening to their bodies.

Combining psychological horror, unsettling imagery, and an exploration of complicated family relationships, Our Monstrous Bodies examines loneliness, motherhood, bodily autonomy, and the darker sides of love and desire.

Eerie, unsettling, and deeply emotional, this striking debut is perfect for readers who enjoy literary horror, body horror, and stories that blur the boundaries between reality and nightmare.
