Djรจlรญ Clark is a dark fantasy novella that blends historical fiction with supernatural horror, set in 1915 America. Well, I did find myself crying and occasionally horrified by some pretty poignant truths hidden under the veil of fiction, ultimately, this is a story of hope and resistance. #ringshout #bookrecommendations #horrorbook #readingispolitical #historicalfiction --- ## General Discord Access Want to access your Bindery channels and join the Warrior Princess Assassin September book club where I'll be hosting a live discussion with author _Brigid Kemmerer_ on the 22nd?
