3.0
Decent body horror novella with a lot of queer subtext. I think it tries to be about too many things and doesn't end up having coherent thoughts about any of them (transhumanism, being trans and beholden to the pharmaceutical industry, trauma from complicity with a dehumanizing corporation), but it's pretty sick when a lesbian turns into the monster from Carrion and eats Newark.
Graphic: Body horror, Gore, Violence, and Medical trauma
Moderate: Confinement, Sexual content, Murder, and Injury/Injury detail
Minor: Sexual assault and Sexual harassment
