The fragments are numbered differently than the page numbers.
The fairy tale epigraphs blend seamlessly into the chapters they head.
I'm reminded that inside each marginalized group is a marginalized group. The fractal nature of this requires a matching fractal Intersectionality.
I love how the poet uses the structure of poetry to tell a story in prose. Uses academic techniques to illuminate personal insights.
Beautiful and highly recommended.

I liked the way the section "The Prince" was printed, with it being unveiled one sentence or one part of a sentence at a time. Then, the revealed parts would be greyed out and the new parts would be in black text to make them stand out. Otherwise, the writing style just wasn't quite for me. That's alright.
Moderate: Racism
Minor: Suicide

5.0
More than once while reading this, I wondered just where we were going, as unexpected strands were woven into the narrative. Following along was always rewarding. Combining beautiful, lyrical language with penetrating thought and insight, this book's impact is much larger than its physical size.
