I have finished this book today. It's short, but not necessarily easy to read. It's longlisted for the International Booker Prize. It's about the witch trials in 17th Denmark and narrated by a wax child. It is weird, creepy, and sad, but a must-read. #books

Just watched THE HOUSE WAS NOT HUNGRY THEN, wr. and dir. by Harry Aspinwall, & really recommend it. Definitely a strange film - & definitely not sure I know what it means, but it's weird, unconventional, & thought-provoking #supportindiefilm #horror
