I'm glad to read this book in the same way you're glad to have met someone you love. Beautiful language, with depth and questions that you can submerge yourself in.

it is a novel, it is a poem, it is mythology, it is coming-of-age, it is romance, it is queer, it is heartbreaking, it is hungry, it is everything.

gay angst, the power of myth and self invention, all wrapped up in funny and memorable verse. Kind of the perfect book to me

My favorite book: a second-hand favorite, as it came recommended as my close friend’s favorite. Then a favorite to another upon my recommendation. Maybe soon to be yours.
A quote:
“Depression is one of the unknown modes of being.
There are no words for a world without a self, seen with impersonal clarity.
All language can register is the slow return
to oblivion we call health when imagination automatically recolors the landscape
and habit blurs perception and language
takes up its routine flourishes.”
