Elogona

di Samantha Kolesnik (Autore)

Weirdpunk Books, 2024

An evocative tale of sapphic love in a post-apocalyptic world dominated by religious zealots and supernatural monsters. Kolesnik's Elogona transports readers to a time after the world's end, when a long-dormant sea creature has awoken to stake its claim against one of the last human settlements. Verna must battle both man and monster to protect her family and her newfound love for Audrey, a refugee from the mainland. Meanwhile, the Elogona calls… "A sapphic coming-of-age wonder that's dangerous on all sides but heartfelt to the core. Further evidence that everything Samantha Kolesnik touches turns to gold." -?Hailey Piper, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Queen of Teeth "At once a dystopian fairytale and a glimpse of our too-possible future, Elogona is a story of love, defiance, and determination in the face of monsters—both human and inhuman. Kolesnik tears through these themes with teeth and heart, never failing to unnerve and surprise." - J.A.W. McCarthy, Bram Stoker Award and Shirley Jackson Award finalist, author of Sleep Alone "Elogona enraptures immediately with darkly fantastical elements that draw you into one of the sweetest and yet devastating sapphic romances I've read. A tale of survival, from the individual to the whole of humanity as they wallow in their own messy, war-torn aftermath, it grabbed me by the throat and didn't let go until the shocking end. Layers of depth, reflecting on the state of our world, are expertly woven together by characters you can't help but fall for, all set in a future sublimely heartbreaking. Kolesnik melded genres and subverted expectations so skillfully, I know I'll be revisiting this story many times as soon as my shredded heart can bear it." - Emma E. Murray, author of Exquisite Hunger "Otherworldly and grounded, immersive and gut-wrenching, Elogona feels all too real. " - Rae Knowles, Author of Merciless Waters "Apocalyptic folklore, religious fascism, and sapphic romance collide in Kolesnik's darkly magical maelstrom of a novella Elogona." - Eric Raglin, author of Extinction Hymns
