Tomorrow morning we will announce a horror novel unlike anything you have ever read before…

I can’t wait for you all to meet Tatiana Țîbuleac, one of the most widely read & remarkable authors in Europe today. From Moldova; writing in Romanian; &, fun fact, this novel is @EdImpedimenta’s best-selling book, where she shares a list w/ Cǎrtǎrescu, Moresco, Bilbao, & more!
extraordinary. the closest a book has ever come, for me, to the reality of losing a parent to sickness. i’m in awe of what Țîbuleac has done here. please read this book when it comes out.
