Only the REAL yerners get it

I’m back attempting to do this amazing book some justice.

This book is SO INCREDIBLY WELL WRITTEN- it’s VISCERAL, SENSUAL, and incredibly POETIC.

This is the type of book that takes over your whole consciousness for a period of time. It ushered me into a new zeitgeist. I thought about it so much I made a Spotify playlist about it

More words coming soon

Beautiful and devastating and blasphemous, it does such cool things with narrative, prose, and genre that I need my thoughts to settle a bit
