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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom acclaimed musical artist and author Rita Indiana, Asmodeus 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. Asmodeus is a supernatural noir, riotous thriller, and searing portrait of a nation grappling with its complicated past.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Macmillan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49313685864683,"sku":"9781644454107","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2652\/3794\/files\/9781644454107.jpg?v=1788034606","url":"https:\/\/www.maggiemaesbooks.com\/products\/asmodeus-a-novel-rita-indiana","provider":"Maggie Mae's Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
