But in 1992, the demon's powers begin to fade. What follows is a desperate weeklong odyssey as Asmodeus ricochets through the bodies of the inhabitants of Santo Domingo's underworld: from Guinea, a young metalhead plotting a warehouse heist, to Mireya, the daughter of a former torturer, to other souls caught in his chaotic orbit. Each possession reveals another layer of a city still reeling from the Balaguer dictatorship. And each new host engenders a surprising tenderness in the demon. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom acclaimed musical artist and author Rita Indiana, \u003ci\u003eAsmodeus\u003c\/i\u003e is written in urgent prose punctuated by original décimas, ten-line rhyming poems drawing from Latin American musical and oral tradition. Indiana weaves together Dominican heavy metal, black magic, and political trauma. \u003ci\u003eAsmodeus\u003c\/i\u003e is a supernatural noir, riotous thriller, and searing portrait of a nation grappling with its complicated past.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Graywolf Press","offers":[{"title":"Asmodeus | Rita Indiana | Paperback | 9781644454107 | New | Fiction 1767264","offer_id":49942528688280,"sku":"1767264","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/91vEBwEJHzL.jpg?v=1789743844","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/asmodeus","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
