October 12th, 2022

In Ainslie Hogarth’s Motherthing, Abby holds certain beliefs. If she can cook her husband a savory Jell-O salad from a 1930’s cookbook, she can save him—from his demons and from the vengeful ghost of her mother-in-law lurking in their basement. She holds onto this hope even if others may find the recipe to be a bit … frightening…
