KATZENJAMMER - FRANCESCA ZAPPIA GEBUNDEN

An eerie  savage novel. -Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books American Horror Story
meets the dark comedy of Kafka's The Metamorphosis as Cat searches for a way to escape her high
school. A tale of family  love  tragedy  and masks-the ones others make for us  and the ones we
make for ourselves. Katzenjammer will haunt fans of Chelsea Pitcher's This Lie Will Kill You
and E. Lockhart's We Were Liars. Cat lives in her high school. She never leaves  and for a long
time her school has provided her with everything she needs. But now things are changing. The
hallways contract and expand along with the school's breathing  and the showers in the bathroom
run a bloody red. Cat's best friend is slowly turning into cardboard  and instead of a face 
Cat has a cat mask made of her own hardened flesh. Cat doesn't remember why she is trapped in
her school or why half of them-Cat included-are slowly transforming. Escaping has always been
the one impossibility in her school's upside-down world. But to save herself from the eventual
self-destruction all the students face  Cat must find the way out. And to do that  she'll have
to remember what put her there in the first place. Using chapters alternating between the past
and the present  acclaimed author Francesca Zappia weaves a spine-tingling  suspenseful  and
haunting story about tragedy and the power of memories. Fans of Marieke Nijkamp's This Is Where
It Ends and Karen McManus's One of Us Is Lying will lose themselves in the pages of this
novel-or maybe in the treacherous hallways of the school. Includes interior illustrations from
the author.
