"Late one night, Laura, Daniel, and Mo find themselves confused and disembodied, blinking under the fluorescent lights of their high school music room. They are greeted by the man they know as their music teacher, who restores the ghostly teens to their corporeal forms with a flick of his fingers and explains: nearly a year ago they went missing from their hometown, the small seaside community of Lovesend, Massachusetts, and have long been presumed dead. Which they are. Desperate to reclaim their lives, the teenagers agree to the terms of a deal that their teacher proposes. Laura, Daniel, and Mo-and a mysterious fourth soul who crossed back over with them-will compete to remain in the mortal realm. They will be given a series of magical tasks; in the meantime, they may return to their families and friends, but they can tell no one where they have been. In the end, there will be winners and losers: Two will remain. Two will return. But their resurrection has attracted the notice of several supernatural figures, all with their own agendas.

- Sour Cherry [electronic resource] : by Theodoridou, Natalia.aut; Gigante, Erifyli.nrt; CloudLibrary;
“A folktale, a whisper, and a dream all at once.”—Rory Power, author of Wilder Girls “If you love Kelly Link, Angela Carter, and Carmen Maria Machado, then Natalia Theodoridou is your new favorite author.”—Benjamin Percy, author of The Ninth Metal A stunning reimagining of Bluebeard—one of the most mythologized serial killers—twisted into a modern tale of toxic masculinity, a feminist sermon, and a folktale for the twenty-first century. The tale begins with Agnes. After losing her baby, Agnes is called to the great manor house to nurse the local lord’s baby boy. But something is wrong with the child: his nails grow too fast, his skin smells of soil, and his eyes remind her of the dark forest. As he grows into a boy, then into man, a plague seems to follow him everywhere. Trees wither at the roots, fruits rot on their branches, and the town turns against him. The man takes a wife, who bears him a son. But tragedy strikes in cycles and his family is forced to consider their own malignancy—until wife after wife, death after death, plague after plague, every woman he touches becomes a ghost. The ghosts become a chorus, and they call urgently to our narrator as she tries to explain, in our very real world, exactly what has happened to her. The ghosts can all agree on one thing, an inescapable truth about this man, this powerful lord who has loved them and led them each to ruin: If you leave, you die. But if you die, you stay. Natalia Theodoridou’s haunting and unforgettable debut novel, Sour Cherry, confronts age-old systems of gender and power, long-held excuses made for bad men, and the complicated reasons we stay captive to the monsters we love.- Subjects: Audiobooks.; Literary; Magical Realism; Fairy Tales, Folk Tales, Legends & Mythology;
