This brought me to tears as Demchuck’s writing is so masterful and so all consuming I could feel the pain and grief in the words. ‘Red X’ encapsulates Horror in every sense of the word. Sprinkled throughout are terrifying scenes amongst harrowing truths and the way the two meld together is really nothing short of pure genius. Clearly, I’ve been sleeping on Demchuck as this is my first read by him. I’ll be adding more of his works to my wishlist. I honestly cannot recommend this book enough. Easily one of my favourite reads of all time.
It’s hard for me to describe in words how incredibly genius this book is but I’m going to do my best. An autobiography intertwined in a historical/folklore queer horror story, complied into one of the most raw, hopelessly poetic and mournful books I have ever read.
