The Vegetarian* meets Heathers in this darkly funny, seductively
strange novel from the acclaimed author of 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat
Girl.
"We were just these innocent girls in the night trying to make
something beautiful. We nearly died. We very nearly did, didn't we?"
Samantha Heather Mackey couldn't be more of an outsider in her small,
highly selective MFA program at New England's Warren University. A
scholarship student who prefers the company of her dark imagination to
that of most people, she is utterly repelled by the rest of her fiction
writing cohort--a clique of unbearably twee rich girls who call each
other "Bunny," and seem to move and speak as one.
But everything changes when Samantha receives an invitation to the
Bunnies' fabled "Smut Salon," and finds herself inexplicably drawn to
their front door--ditching her only friend, Ava, in the process. As
Samantha plunges deeper and deeper into the Bunnies' sinister yet
saccharine world, beginning to take part in the ritualistic off-campus
"Workshop" where they conjure their monstrous creations, the edges of
reality begin to blur. Soon, her friendships with Ava and the Bunnies
will be brought into deadly collision.
The spellbinding new novel from one of our most fearless chroniclers of
the female experience, Bunny is a down-the-rabbit-hole tale of
loneliness and belonging, friendship and desire, and the fantastic and
terrible power of the imagination.
Named a Best Book of 2019 by TIME, Vogue, Electric Literature, and
