My Dark Vanessa
A haunting and brilliant read that explores the power play between a manipulative teacher and his naïve young student and the lasting effects the affair has on both decades later. Uncomfortable, disturbing and yet extremely relevant, My Dark Vanessa is very much a raw take on a modern-day Lolita. The read is at times painful and infuriating, but it is without a doubt a novel you will never forget.
