"[Oyeyemi] makes us glad to suspend disbelief."
--The New York Times Book Review "Profoundly chilling . . . a slow-building neo-Gothic that will leave persevering readers breathless."
--The Boston Globe "If you've been missing Shirley Jackson all these many years . . . here's a writer who seems to be a direct heir to that lamented one's gothic throne."
--The Austin Chronicle "Superbly atmospheric. . . . The dark tones of Poe in her haunting have also the elasticity of Haruki Murakami's surreal mental landscapes."
--The Independent (UK) "[Oyeyemi's] technical skill as a novelist is remarkable, her range of reference formidable and her use of language virtuosic."
--The Daily Telegraph (UK) "Appealing from page one.... Unconventional, intoxicating and deeply disquieting."

One of Granta’s Best Young British Novelists
From the acclaimed author of What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours and Gingerbread
There’s something strange about the Silver family house in the closed-off town of Dover, England. Grand and cavernous with hidden passages and buried secrets, it’s been home to four generations of Silver women—Anna, Jennifer, Lily, and now Miranda, who has lived in the house with her twin brother, Eliot, ever since their father converted it to a bed-and-breakfast. The Silver women have always had a strong connection, a pull over one another that reaches across time and space, and when Lily, Miranda’s mother, passes away suddenly while on a trip abroad, Miranda begins suffering strange ailments. An eating disorder starves her. She begins hearing voices. When she brings a friend home, Dover’s hostility toward outsiders physically manifests within the four walls of the Silver house, and the lives of everyone inside are irrevocably changed. At once an unforgettable mystery and a meditation on race, nationality, and family legacies, White is for Witching is a boldly original, terrifying, and elegant novel by a prodigious talent.
