Reviews
" In the Dream House is both innovative in its approach and nerve-striking in its subject matter." -- Pacific Standard "Daringly structured and ruthlessly inquisitive. . . . The heart of this history is clear, deeply felt, and powerful. A fiercely honest, imaginatively written, and necessary memoir from one our great young writers." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review "Absolutely remarkable. . . . What makes this book truly exceptional is how Machado creates an archive where, shamefully, there is none." --Roxane Gay "It's a testament to Carmen Maria Machado's abilities that a memoir as harrowing as In the Dream House can also be so energizing to read, so propulsive." --Kevin Brockmeier "Carmen Maria Machado's memoir about being trapped in a love relationship that turns nasty and shameful is unflinchingly honest. . . . In the Dream House affirms that Machado is one of the most talented young writers of our day." --Lillian Faderman "Wrought with alarming premonition, propulsive rhythm, and a trove of folkloric archetypes, Machado's genre-crushing memoir is a meditation on the eclipse of knowledge and intuition by the narcotic light of a destructive bond that feels like love." --Melissa Broder "Carmen Maria Machado has re-imagined the memoir genre, creating a work of art both breathtakingly inventive and urgently true. In the Dream House is crucial queer testimony. I've never read a book like it." --Alex Marzano-Lesnevich, "It's a testament to Carmen Maria Machado's abilities that a memoir as harrowing as In the Dream House can also be so energizing to read, so propulsive." --Kevin Brockmeier "Carmen Maria Machado's memoir about being trapped in a love relationship that turns nasty and shameful is unflinchingly honest. . . .

The result is a thoroughly engrossing, sometimes enraging must-read." --BuzzFeed "Celebrated for her inventive writing, Carmen Maria Machado will not disappoint her fans with this dazzling memoir that journeys through a maze of stories, each vignette (some only a sentence long) an individual room containing a moment of wonder, curiosity or sorrow." --NBC News Latino "Machado is able to captivate the reader while telling a brutally honest narrative of abuse." -- Marie Claire "Forget everything you think you know about memoir when reading Carmen Maria Machado's brilliant, twisting, provocative entry in the genre." -- NYLON "A groundbreaking memoir in terms of both form and content. . . . Get ready for Machado to take you on several breakneck cross-country trips of the soul." -- The Observer "The Philly author of the much-awarded Her Body and Other Parties comes back strong with this memoir about adolescence, sexual identity, and damaging love." -- The Philadelphia Inquirer " In the Dream House is both innovative in its approach and nerve-striking in its subject matter." -- Pacific Standard "Carmen Maria Machado's rise in the literary world has been nothing short of meteoric." -- The Week "Daringly structured and ruthlessly inquisitive. . . .

Synopsis
A revolutionary memoir about domestic abuse by the award-winning author of Her Body and Other Parties In the Dream House is Carmen Maria Machado's engrossing and wildly innovative account of a relationship gone bad, and a bold dissection of the mechanisms and cultural representations of psychological abuse. Tracing the full arc of a harrowing relationship with a charismatic but volatile woman, Machado struggles to make sense of how what happened to her shaped the person she was becoming. And it's that struggle that gives the book its original structure: each chapter is driven by its own narrative trope--the haunted house, erotica, the bildungsroman--through which Machado holds the events up to the light and examines them from different angles. She looks back at her religious adolescence, unpacks the stereotype of lesbian relationships as safe and utopian, and widens the view with essayistic explorations of the history and reality of abuse in queer relationships. Machado's dire narrative is leavened with her characteristic wit, playfulness, and openness to inquiry. She casts a critical eye over legal proceedings, fairy tales, Star Trek , and Disney villains, as well as iconic works of film and fiction. The result is a wrenching, riveting book that explodes our ideas about what a memoir can do and be.
