spent my sick drizzly morning finishing this, which I pulled off the library bookshelf almost literally at random. It’s good.
Yesterday, I went down a rabbit trail of Kaye Donachie’s art. (She painted the art on the cover of one of the upcoming @dorothyproject.bsky.social releases, BLUE NIGHTS. It’s haunting & beautiful!)
This is an excellent thread about her.
Just adding another "incredible" . . .
Most recently: Night Night Fawn by Jordy Rosenberg, a couple by Vigdis Hjorth, a couple by Miriam Toews, Us Fools by Nora Lange, The Autobiography of H. Lan Thao Lam by Lana Lin…
I'm also very much looking forward to these two from @dorothyproject.bsky.social!!
this list!!!!!!!!

Love this video from @powells.bsky.social featuring @nan69.bsky.social, who has hand-sold so many books over the years for so many authors.
“‘What remains?’ the book’s title asks. After emigration, after history, after death, exile, and transformation, what remains is life.”

"Memory is fungal, conflict is weather, the brain is a mutinous landscape. When asked, 'How do you feel?' Renee responds, 'Like I need to stare up into the trees for a long time. That’s how I think.'"
Cool to see Renee Gladman's MY LESBIAN NOVEL here.

Brais Lamela explores fiction, history, and the slipperiness of the nonfiction novel in ‘What Remains,’ newly translated by Jacob Rogers.
For these writers, queerness is an integral part of glaciers, fjords, retention ponds, and every other environment that makes life possible

Given the discourse today, what is a book or author you bought after checking it out from the library?
