Hello! First post, let me know it I need to fix anything on it 🙂
Just finished My Dark Vanessa and I am looking for a book similar in some ways but not necessarily in content/plot.
Meaning, I don’t really want another book about CSA, and that’s what all suggestions are when I try to find ones based on this title (understandably so)
I just want similar vibes in that the character/s are working through or dealing with a trauma or dark past of sorts, the characters are very complex and troubling like in MDV, and the prose is very thoughtful and purposeful like I found MDV to be. I want something heart wrenching and painful that in the end will leave me with questions about myself and this world/culture.
I know that’s all very vague.. Maybe as a starting point are there any authors you’ve read that you find similar to Russell’s writing?
If the book suggestion does have plot lines centered around CSA that is fine, I just want to be clear that’s not necessarily what I want to find more of.
TIA!
