"As intriguing and impressive a novelist as she is a musician Hval is a master of quiet horror
and wonder." Chris Kraus author of I Love Dick Jo is in a strange new country for
university and having a more peculiar time than most. A house with no walls a roommate with no
boundaries and a home that seems ever more alive as the days pass. Jo’s sensitivity and all
her senses become increasingly heightened and fraught as the lines between bodies and plants
dreaming and wakefulness blur and mesh. This debut novel from a critically adored artist and
musician presents a heady and hypersensual portrayal of sexual awakening and queer desire.
