The Night Alphabet by Joelle Taylor

The Night Alphabet by Joelle Taylor is a bold, poetic, and genre-defying novel that explores identity, trauma, survival, and transformation through the powerful lens of speculative fiction. Told in a series of interconnected stories structured like an alphabet of nights, this book follows Eloise, a queer woman who travels through haunting and magical landscapes, each chapter revealing another layer of personal and collective history.

Dark, dreamlike, and deeply political, Taylor’s storytelling merges myth, memory, and lyricism into a fierce meditation on womanhood and resistance.

Memorable Quote (from the book)
"The body remembers everything even the stories we tried to forget."

Translation (Sinhala):
"ශරීරය හැමදේම මතක තබා ගනී අපි අමතක කිරීමට උත්සාහ කළ කතාද ඇතුළුයි."

Translation (Tamil):
"உடல் எல்லாவற்றையும் நினைவில் வைத்திருக்கிறது நாம் மறக்க முயன்ற கதைகளையும்."
