WHITE ANDREW JOSEPH THE SPIRIT BARES ITS TEETH

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!   A Stonewall Honor Book in Young Adult Literature!   A
blood-soaked and nauseating triumph that cuts like a scalpel and reads like your darkest
nightmare.   New York Times bestselling author Andrew Joseph White returns with the
transgressive gothic horror of our time!    Mors vincit omnia. Death conquers all.   London 
1883. The Veil between the living and dead has thinned. Violet-eyed mediums commune with
spirits under the watchful eye of the Royal Speaker Society  and sixteen-year-old trans 
autistic Silas Bell would rather rip out his violet eyes than become an obedient Speaker wife.
After a failed attempt to escape an arranged marriage  Silas is diagnosed with Veil sickness—a
mysterious disease sending violet-eyed women into madness—and shipped away to Braxton’s
Finishing School and Sanitorium. When the ghosts of missing students start begging Silas for
help  he decides to reach into Braxton’s innards and expose its guts to the world—so long as
the school doesn’t break him first.  Featuring an autistic trans protagonist in a historical
setting  Andrew Joseph White’s much-anticipated sophomore novel does not back down from
exposing the violence of the patriarchy and the harm inflicted on trans youth who are forced
into conformity.   A Stonewall Honor Book in Young Adult Literature   Selected for the Rise:
