MY MONSTROUS FAMILY COOKBOOK

$22.95

My Monstrous Family Cookbook is a hybrid memoir that uses the structure of a cookbook to explore family trauma, memory, and survival. Each recipe functions as an essay, transforming food into a language for what cannot be spoken. Darkly funny and emotionally incisive, the book interrogates masculinity, inheritance, and the costs of silence.
