Childhood memories resurface, revealing a path into the past, winding back through generations. This matrilineal line leads toward nature, witchcraft, freedom. Could this be where they belong?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat follows is an astounding quest for liberation - from generational trauma, class identity, the limits of language. It''s a search for other forms of knowledge and traditions, other ways of becoming. Bold and expansive, Blood Book is an unforgettable reckoning with the past, and a mesmerising exploration of who we are.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e''Everything about it is fantastic''\u003cbr\u003eDie Welt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e''One can only marvel''\u003cbr\u003eDie Zeit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e''An important new voice for a new form of writing''\u003cbr\u003eTages-Anzeiger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished in the US as Sea, Mothers, Swallow, Tongues","brand":"Hodder \u0026 Stoughton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51446726689115,"sku":"9781399731430","price":26.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/suomalainen-test.myshopify.com\/products\/blood-book","provider":"Suomalainen Test","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
