Michael Keaton did not sacrifice 1983 treading this VERY exhausted trope for us to revisit it without the benefit of Michael Keaton.

Always grateful for @bethanycmorrow.com’s voice, but whew—I love this one something special. Latest review is up!

One of my favorite elements, which I found myself thinking of obsessively in the hours between reading over the days I read this book, is how it's religious horror without almost ever invoking God. No explicit prayers, no routines of kneeling and worship. Partly because Mavis left her family's church, but partly because religious horror (at least/especially for women and other marginalized people) is not about fearing God. It's about the behaviors of the people who believe beyond self-reflection that they are guided by a higher power. The horror is the bloody, gristle-rich sacrifice you have been instructed is necessary for salvation.
The horror is what people do to each other under the guise of grace.

This has always been true, and as the daughter of a Roman Catholic Filipina, I'd argue it has always been true of the Catholic Church in particular. There are peaceful people of every faith, but evangelism and control are harmful no matter who preaches it. All to say, the horror is not about any one religion, really. It's about blind obedience. Unjustified self-forgiveness. A sense of righteousness and purpose so powerful it blots out all else.

Happy book birthday, @bethanycmorrow.com 🎉 THE BODY is out today! It's terrific and twisted and twisty, and I said it "marries religious and domestic horror beautifully, wearing a bridal veil of trauma as cuts and carnage." If you missed last night's event, check her book tour, and THE BODY 🔥

Collage depicting imagery and themes from the novel, The Body by Bethany C Morrow. A Black woman sits, forlorn, before a Palladian window, blood spatter around. There’s a pile of stones, the silhouette of a woman reaching longingly toward the silhouette of a man wearing a halo made of wedding rings. Religious imagery includes stained glass.
