Tiffany McDaniel paints a stark picture of 'women who could have been queens in a different parade.'
Tiffany McDaniel's devastating new novel follows a doomed young woman in Chillicothe.
“On the Savage Side" , set two decades earlier, is narrated from beyond the grave by Arcade, one of the murdered women. “You make the savage side beautiful with a needle,” she says, with no awareness of the irony of her statement. McDaniel treats the women who “walk the streets of Chillicothe with holes in their arms” with great tenderness, far more tenderness than they receive in life. The women who are killed are friends of Arc's, addicted to drugs and paying for their habits with prostitution, but they're also distinct individuals, and each step they make to get out of the life, even if temporary, provides a flicker of hope and light that make their inevitable fates more horrifying.
