What a strange and wonderful novel. It's an odd ghost story about gentrification and hate and ultimately about love. It's a strange juxtaposition, but it really worked for me. I think what I liked most about this book was that the main character was deeply flawed, yet I still felt I could identify with him. Perhaps was because he was gay and an addict and angry. Perhaps it was because of his strained relationship with his father. The last book I read by Miller, Blackfish City, won the Campbell Award in 2019 and was nominated for a few others. I didn't really care for that book, but this one felt leaps and bounds better.
