À propos de cet audio

 In a lush, quiet field, a girl made of flowers opens her eyes and meets Rory, a boy who is desperate to have a friend. Magic and horror collide in this stunning debut that explores power, consent, loneliness, and what makes a person.

She was made for him.

Daye was woven together from flowers and magic to be the perfect playmate for Rory, a young boy left isolated in a remote country estate. In the early years, their friendship, almost eerily in sync, is everything the two lonely children could dream of.

But the threat of Daye literally—and gruesomely—falling apart whenever the seasons change drives Rory to learn ever deeper and stranger magic, until the line between what he can do and what he should do begins to blur. And the further Rory experiments, the higher the stakes climb—until the cost of a mistake might be either Daye’s freedom or her life.

Daye can’t help but love Rory, even as he keeps disappearing: into his studies, into the city—a place she, a girl whose heart is built of petals and berries, could never enter without falling apart. But as her choices narrow with each new experiment, Daye begins to wonder at what point the price for loving Rory might be too high.

Loosely based on Welsh mythology, Honeysuckle is a heartbreaking fable of longing and need—for love, for control, and for freedom—and a psychological fairy tale perfect for readers of Eowyn Ivey and V. E. Schwab. Part Wuthering Heights, part Frankenstein, it is its own fantastically twisted tale from a singular new talent in Bar Fridman-Tell.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“A hauntingly lyrical, fairytale-like horror. I was absolutely enthralled with Fridman-Tell’s lush world building and devastatingly beautiful prose. Honeysuckle delves deep into familiar themes of control and consent while probing the moral and ethical boundaries of creation. A searing addition to the literary horror genre, Honeysuckle offers a tale in which beauty is inextricably intertwined with rot and, with the unrelenting passage of time, love serves as both a shield and a dagger.”
