One day, while trying to bury his cat (run over by his drunken father) in the woods behind the local cemetery, Josh discovers a mysterious old book, which turns out to be a book of black magic containing various spells, including one on how to revive the dead...
Ex Utero, dripping in grunge atmosphere, mines familiar thematic territory for fans of Forsman's previous bestsellers: raw adolescence, young romance, slowly building tension, and those small cracks in reality that make everything increasingly unsettling--all sprinkled with a perfectly controlled touch of the fantastic. Forsman is a master of his craft, and he proves it a little more with each new book. Ex Utero is Forsman's most accomplished work to date, a horror story that masks an exploration of personal family trauma and how to reconcile one's complex relationship with a parent after their death.
