It's no secret that becoming a mother comes with many serious changes: lack of sleep, hormones go crazy, the body changes, teeth become sharper, hair becomes thick and fluffy... Wait, what? Which mother should identify with this? For example, the nameless protagonist from Nightbitch , called Mother – she would agree, wagging her tail and panting. American bestselling author Rachel Yoder deals with motherhood and identity in her Kafkaesque debut novel in a way that is as personal as it is satirical. She questions social expectations of new mothers and thus hits the zeitgeist - so it's no wonder that the book is currently being made into a film.

If you were able to listen to the French writer Catherine Dufour a few hours ago, talking about how she turned a woman’s body into fantasy-genre territory in La Inmaculada Concepción, and if you still have the image etched in your mind of Mia Farrow eating raw flesh in Rosemary’s Baby (Roman Polanski, 1968)..., you might now be ready to read Nightbitch [published in Spanish as Canina], the debut novel by Rachel Yoder from the USA or, at least, to listen to the author speaking about motherhood in an unconventional way.
