cattytrona's review
3.0
Very frequently, the reading experience feels like visiting one of those white cube galleries where they give you the exhibition title, but no further interpretation, and you’re lost in a big white sea of possible meaning which loops back, in the end, to meaningless.
It’s a cool idea, and I like some of it — the attempts to tell little stories through photo captions work best for me, and I liked the chapter of all the events on the same night too iykyk. But it’s all content and no conclusion, and sometimes even the content is a bit lacking.
ALSO the name ‘Catroina’ exists in this which… is a new one for sure.

Strange and occasionally interesting, but I would be really angry with myself if I spent $40 to buy this book. If you're curious, the library is your best bet.

I love everything Leanne Shapton does, so I am really powerless to review it. She entwines the visual with the ephemeral with beautiful language and creates a story out of the mists.
Recommended for Shapton fans and for readers who don't mind shadowy narrative.
