Unsere Bewertung

An atmospheric Gothic horror novel that goes the extra mile with featuring women of color as the protagonists and includes race and colonialism as part of the horror. This book is insanely terrifying and mind blowing and a dangerous dancing between Mexican folklore, horror stories and Darwin?s theory of natural selection.
Mexican Gothic begins in such an unassuming way, where you think you're walking into a traditional haunted house story, and then everything shifts to pull you under like a riptide that doesn't loosen until you turn the final page. I was flabbergasted, speechless at some chapters.
