The City Beautiful

Death lurks around every corner in this unforgettable Jewish historical fantasy about a city, a boy, and the shadows of the past that bind them both together.

What an absolute delight of a book.
Set with the backdrop of the Chicago World Fair Polydoros gives us queer horror in such a fantastic way. Besides the horror of having his body taken over by his friends dybbuk - Alter is also having to face the trauma of his own past to discover how to save his future.

The main cast of characters are so great and have such a great dynamic with one another. I can't wait to see what else Polydoros does!
