My Dark Vanessa

In 2000, fifteen-year-old Vanessa Wye becomes entangled in an affair with her magnetic and manipulative English teacher, Jacob Strane. Decades later, in the wake of the #MeToo movement, Strane is accused of sexual abuse by a former student. Vanessa must confront her past and decide if her first love was actually a calculated act of grooming. This provocative and devastating novel explores the complexity of memory, the trauma of exploitation, and the difficult journey toward reclaiming one's own narrative.
