Description: 'Poison and Honey' is a busy novella that focuses on a house, sometimes known as the House of the Twelve Angels and its family, the Osorins. It covers their lives, ambitions and also the events leading to a murder. The narrator, Semyon Semyonovich, becomes part of the extended family when his Grandfather brings him to the Osorin house as a small child. Through this narrator, Buida creates a packed story full of the realistic, mythical and metaphysical that is strangely enjoyable and full of suspense.
