The Book
Within forty-eight hours, Yaya Betancourt will go from discovering teeth between her thighs to being hunted by one of the most powerful corporations in America.
Winner of the Bram Stoker Award, Queen of Teeth has been called “invigorating futuristic horror” by Autostraddle, “delightfully fucked up” by Vulture, and “mesmerizing, original, and breathtaking” by Library Journal in a starred review. Part body horror, part queer romance, part dystopian sci-fi, and all hungry.
