Paradise rot : a novel

Hval, Jenny, 1980-2024
Books, Manuscripts
Jo is in a strange new country for university, and having a more peculiar time than most. A house with no walls, a roommate with no boundaries and a home that seems ever more alive. Jo's sensitivity, and all her senses, become increasingly heightened and fraught, as the lines between bodies and plants, and dreaming and wakefulness, blur and mesh. This debut novel from critically acclaimed artist and musician Jenny Hval presents a heady and hyper-sensual portrayal of sexual awakening and queer desire.
