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 arrival brings a single spark of hope to a world of darkness.
The Unworthy is 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, New York Times bestselling author of Horror Movie and A Head Full of Ghosts
"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
