About 
The Unworthy
:
'Barbaric, brutal and utterly beautiful. The Unworthy is a searing haunt of a novel that I will never forget.'
 --- Lucy Rose, author of 
The Lamb 
'Brutal and aching. A perfect fever dream of a book.'  
--- 
Heather Darwent, author of 
The Things We Do to Our Friends
'Unflinching, uncompromising, and unforgettable. Agustina Bazterrica shines a light at the end of the brutal and bleak path we are on so that maybe, just maybe, we can turn around and forge a new one.' 
--- Paul Tremblay, author of 
The Cabin at the End of the World
A fearsomely dark, incantatory new dystopia set in a post-apocalyptic convent from the author of viral sensation
 
Tender is the Flesh
In the House of the Sacred Sisterhood, the unworthy live in fear of the Superior Sister's whip. Seething with resentment, they plot against each other and await who will ascend to the level of the Enlightened - and who will suffer the next exemplary punishment.
Risking her life, one of the unworthy keeps a diary in secret. Slowly, memories surface from a time before the world collapsed, before the Sacred Sisterhood became the only refuge.
Then Lucía arrives. She, too, is unworthy - but she is different. And her presence brings a single spark of hope to a world of darkness.
