When the Creatures Come

🖤 When the Creatures ComeA haunting literary novel about the quiet unraveling of reality—and the people who remain behind.They say the creatures come after moments of stillness. After something shifts. After someone leaves.No one knows exactly what they are. No one dares to speak of them for long. But when they arrive, they don’t just bring destruction—they erase. Places vanish. Conversations dissolve. People forget what was once solid.At the center of this quietly collapsing world is a man known only as X. Those who meet him are never quite the same, though most can’t explain why. Around him orbit a cast of flawed, searching characters:A woman who can no longer trust her memoriesA visitor seeking a second chanceA man trying to outrun what he already knowsEach of them struggles with their own ghosts, their own silences—until the creatures come.Told in a series of interwoven voices and moments, When the Creatures Come is a lyrical, psychologically rich exploration of disconnection, regret, and the strange comforts of vanishing. In this surreal and emotionally arresting debut, the lines between the internal and external world blur—and survival becomes less about escape, and more about understanding what must be faced.Perfect for readers of:📚 Literary fiction with speculative or surreal edges🧩 Psychological character studies📖 Works by Haruki Murakami, Clarice Lispector, or Max PorterWhen the Creatures Come invites you to linger in the silence before everything changes.
