Visceral is a good way of describing this work. Like the snakes it talks about, the story slithers around you, constricting and squirming. It's uncomfortable in the way that great literature can be. As noted, the topic is dark, but the strength that the characters show is enormous. Fabulous Beasts is going on my favourites list.
