Bloodchild and Other Stories

4/5. Short story collection. Including her famous (infamous?) “pregnant man story” which, if it were on the AO3, would be tagged ova position and dead dove do not eat. She kind of lived in the dead dove do not eat tag, tbh. In a good way? I mean I’m into it. It’s all depressing as hell and twisty and psychological and horrifying. I read this months ago, and actually the few non-fantastical stories have stuck with me the most for being little jewels of twisted up circumstance and emotion.

Content notes: Um, ova position? Body horror, coerced reproduction, various kinds of sexual violence, mostly off page, references to incest, violence, many other things I can't clearly remember now.
