Valley Versus Vector is a psychoanalytic folk horror novel that plunges into the depths of abjection and bodily transgression. When Ellis Horning, a nurse at Christ Hospital in Oregon, experiences a necrophilic rupture with a deceased patient, his psyche fractures, opening a conduit to a sentient bacterial intelligence known as the Christ Contagion. Haunted by childhood guilt and drawn into a hallucinatory communion with the river's divine ecology, Ellis becomes the site of a metaphysical infection that reconfigures identity and the limits of the human. Building on Julia Kristeva's theory of abjection within a folk horror and ecological mystical setting, Valley Versus Vector is a descent into the horror of becoming set within the landscapes of Corvallis, Oregon, and Greenville, South Carolina.
