WOW. This book is so beautiful.
THE queer dystopia of all time. I don’t know if I can say I enjoyed this so much as I appreciated it. It’s a very very good book, which I recommend everyone read. It’s definitely a staple.

Unlike anything I’ve ever read. Extremely needed world-building and ponderings of queer utopia and survival.

i am full of love for this book and for the faggots and queens and women who love women and for lilac and pinetree and the community we all have together. the more we share the more we have.
Some of my favorite excerpts:
“Some days Lilac would be in a trance. The smell of Pinetree’s body would stay in his pores and make his nose twitch all day. They made love at night and in the morning and the odors would get strong and definite and hypnotizing. The odors evoked love and spurred on love and made Lilac remember love. By afternoon they would begin to fade and Lilac would retire for small moments to smell himself and what remained of Pinetree.”
“we know now that if the men give you anything, you get nothing. If we want it, we got to take it away from them.”
“They know that friendship freely given sustains them”
“But the faggots and their friends will no longer need the men. They can sit and produce high, invisible love energy or they can do anything. But they will not need. And when the faggots and their friends cease being the faggots and their friends, the deathly dance of the men will begin to wane and a new dance will begin to emerge. Then the third revolutions will engulf us all.”
