I picked this up by chance at the Aesop Queer Library and I am so glad I did. As an American it took a bit to understand some of the dialogue but it is worth it. For a lot of the book it functions almost like short stories with a thematic through line for each section, but the end threads them all together beautifully in a way that made me sob. I loved it and will be looking for more from this author.
