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.

I cannot imagine simply reading this book. Once I learned that Carmen Maria Machado did her own audible reading, I knew I wanted to listen. I read her words from my copy of her book as she spoke them in her own voice... metered and authentic.

Haunting albeit beautiful

What an amazing and important book. It took me a few chapters to get into it, but afterwards I could not put it down. Beautiful writing and captivating story that hurt at times and felt incredibly relatable. Thank you for writing this, Carmen.

wow wow wow!

Very moving, but that is not half of it. The way Carmen associates images in an almost stream of consciousness manner gives amazing insite into her mind. It made me want to read everything she ever wrote. I am hungry for anything so well written.

Difficult subject mastered with amazing style.

Wow just wow

This book explores a queer relationship and the abuse in that relationship. And I didn’t think I could handle listening. But I loved it. Machado’s incredible prose weaves in such a stunning way. My attention span loved the little snippets.

Incredible prose on a devastating topic
