I thought about being too small for so much, but that no one told you when you were big enough ... and I asked God if he please couldn`t take my brother Matthies instead of my rabbit. `Amen.`Jas lives with her devout farming family in the rural Netherlands. One winter`s day, her older brother joins an ice skating trip; resentful at being left alone, she makes a perverse plea to God; he never returns. As grief overwhelms the farm, Jas succumbs to a vortex of increasingly disturbing fantasies,

watching her family disintegrate into a darkness that threatens to derail them all.A bestselling sensation in the Netherlands by a prize-winning young poet, Marieke Lucas Rijneveld`s debut novel lays everything bare. It is a world of language unlike any other, which Michele Hutchison`s striking translation captures in all its wild, violent beauty. Studded with unforgettable images - visceral, raw, surreal - The Discomfort of the Evening is a radical reading experience that will leave you changed forever.(goodreads)
