The Books Oracle

Fever Dream

by Samanta Schweblin

A young woman lies dying in a rural clinic, telling a haunting story to a boy who is not her child. Schweblin crafts a nightmare come to life—a ghost story about broken souls, environmental toxins, and the desperate power of family, told in a feverish, hallucinatory prose.
