(2) YA Sixteen-year-old Milla, who's never left her family's farm, fears she will never be virtuous enough to escape the ever-present threat of demonic possession. When charismatic Iris visits from the nearby village, the two become fast friends; Iris confides that girls are becoming possessed by a vengeful demon and believes she will succumb next. Unsettling and thought-provoking, this dark fantasy explores the revolutionary power of women's anger and the strength of sisterhood.
