Resumen del Editor
How far would you go to be free? Three generations of women forge a new path through an America torn by a mysterious wave of violence in this “chilling [and] dizzyingly effective” (The New York Times Book Review) novel of revenge, liberation, and triumph.
“A compulsively readable fusion of domestic thriller and modern horror.”—Kameron Hurley, author of The Light Brigade
“A novel that defines this era.”—Stephen Graham Jones, New York Times bestselling author of The Only Good Indians
FINALIST FOR THE ITW THRILLER AWARD • ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New York Times
They call it The Violence: a strange epidemic that causes the infected to experience sudden bursts of animalistic rage, with no provocation and no memory of their crimes. While it tears the nation apart, one woman sees something unlikely in the chaos—an opportunity.
Chelsea Martin has been a prisoner in her own home for too long. Her controlling husband has manipulated her for years, cutting her off from all support. Her narcissistic mother is no help, and her teen daughter is realizing she might be falling into the same trap when her once adoring boyfriend shows a dark side.
But when the Violence erupts, Chelsea creates a plan to liberate herself and her daughters once and for all.
What follows is a shocking and thrilling journey as three generations of women navigate a world in which they are finally empowered to fight back. Somewhere along the journey from her magazine-ready Tampa home to the professional wrestling ring, Chelsea becomes her own liberator, an avatar of revenge and hope, and a new heroine for a new world.
Reseñas de la Crítica
"Dawson’s thriller is a surprising, exhilarating journey of three generations of women navigating a changing world.”—The Washington Post
“Every summer needs a superb thriller, and this is it. A story of three generations of women making their way through an America ravaged by violence, this is also a wonderful narrative about liberation and perseverance.”—The Boston Globe
“Dawson’s prose is a kind of knife work: short, sharp stabs after agonies of teeth-clenching tension. . . . Dizzyingly effective . . . It’s impossible not to read.”—The New York Times Book Review

Historia
Ramona was only five years old when Hurricane Katrina changed her life forever. Since then it's been Ramona and her family against the world. Standing over six feet tall, with unmistakable blue hair, Ramona is sure of three things: She likes girls, she's fiercely devoted to her family, and she knows she's destined for something bigger than the trailer she calls home in Eulogy, Mississippi. But juggling multiple jobs, her flaky mom, and her well-meaning but ineffectual dad forces her to be the adult of the family.

Historia
Ailsa Calder has inherited half of a house. The other half belongs to a man who disappeared without a trace 27 years ago - her father. Leaving London behind to settle the inheritance, Ailsa returns to the manor, nestled amongst the craggy peaks of the Scottish Highlands, joined by the half-sister who's practically a stranger to her. Ailsa can't escape the claustrophobic feeling that the house itself watches her - as if her dramatic past hungers to consume her.

Two decades later, Saskia is shuttered in her Connecticut estate, estranged from the others.

I liked it a lot!
I didn't expect much going into this book but it was really good. More suspenseful than you might expect the narrator was fantastic as always.

Holy cow patties Flirida Woman!
I will give nothing away outside of the title of this review. Smart, current, scathing social commentary, gut-wrenching, compelling, disturbing and uplifting.
The narration is outstanding and this is a near perfect listen. I only write near perfect because I don't believe in perfection.

A good story
I was really loving this story in the beginning. The three points of view from the mother, grandmother, and eldest daughter were so great. I loved that they had so many echoed experiences. The book started to get shaky for me when the family split up. It hit a bit of a hump in the middle that it struggled to come back from. I am satisfied with the end of this and there are so many great quotable lines but in the end I wish it hadn’t lost the momentum it had in the beginning.

Unlike anything I've read before
The author really put together a fabulous tale. Although the VFR angle was a little off the rails, somehow it worked. Narration was excellent.

Could have been better
The premise of the Violence was very interesting. I really enjoyed the characters (especially Patricia). However there was too much naval gazing (especially in the last quarter), too many cliches and politics.

Character development
An unrealistic situation but a very realistic reaction by most of the characters. Loved the changes in many of the characters. The ending was a little too pat. But oh so satisfying! Bad guy gets his and those who grew survived happily ever after.

Content warning: abuse
The Violence is the latest book by New York Times bestselling author Delilah S. Dawson, and it is an emotional rollercoaster. It’s captivating and brutal, and the subject matter can be – as stated in her Author’s Note – “distressing for some readers.” I was one of those readers. “The Violence deals with themes of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse,” she explains, and I was definitely forced to relive past traumas. My heart raced and my emotions raged while reading, but the characters were sympathetic and engaging, and I needed to know what happened to them.
Dawson crafted a three generations of damaged women, all suffering in silence, each struggling with their own private demons. She placed them in the wealthy suburbs in a post-Covid version of Florida, showed us their worst character flaws, and then set a new pandemic free to rage among them. This new pandemic causes sudden, violent rages, and in the beginning of the outbreak, the government collects these infected individuals so they can’t harm others. Abusive men caught attacking women they love could be theoretically be considered infected with the Violence…
The Violence is expertly written, skipping street names and details such as house colors, subdivision titles, and store names, but focusing on a tiny corner shop at one intersection that all three main characters stop at throughout the book. It starts out as a little yellow shack with a scrolling digital sign implying men should buy new floors to make their wives happy. By the end of the book, a character sees the shack under new management and thinks about thunderstorms bringing rainbows. It’s one of my favorite lines of the book, actually.
Dawson manages to convey that very real fear of strange men who may or may not hit on you while you’re out in public alone, and how powerful a simple hug can be after being isolated and alone for too long. The Violence is a powerful book and it is a memorable one. Dawson carefully balanced the tension of the book so that there are beautiful moments amid the darkness.
There’s no way to predict how it will make you feel if you are sensitive to the subject material and/or have been in an abusive relationship. I needed several Xanax and the love and support of my wonderful husband to make it through the book, and writing this review, because of my previous marriage. Counseling and therapy helps, but so do prescription medications and support systems. I am fortunate to have all of the above.
To quote the Author’s Note once more: “If you’re experiencing abuse, please seek support. You are not alone.”
