"A queer retelling of the Chinese folklore Legend of the White Snake", this book actually has elements of literary fiction and light horror while giving us a feminist story of two sisters who are in fact ancient shapeshifting snakes.
It took a while to get going and I almost lost interest half-way through, but the final chapters really brought me back in. These snake sisters showing what it means to be human, especially a woman, in the world today really got to me.
