olivia laing - the lonely city

genuinely one of the greatest books i’ve ever read. a series of profiles of famous artists in and around new york throughout the 20th century, and the relationship that social isolation had to their work. also, some amazing accounts of struggles during the aids crisis.

Take the cannoli by sarah vowell

Extremely underrated overly-personal and perfectly distant essay collection by voice of Violet Parr in the Incredibles, Sarah Vowell. She tackles everything from father-daughter relationship awkwardness to what it means to be an American. If you want to laugh and cry at the same time. Read this.

Veronica by Mary Gaitskill

For weeks after I finished this book for the first time I would think about it every five minutes. I’d be walking around the city and everything/everyone would be glaringly vibrant, beauty and ugliness coexisting and screaming. Everything pulsated with life in an almost uncomfortable way. She’s a freaky genius. This book honestly changed the way I see the world.
