I can lift my own weight. I can lift my own weight. I can lift my own weight.
I want to tell the story again.
so many times reading this i had to just put it down and take in what i was reading. this touched me on an atomic level. beautifully written, wonderful storytelling and intertwining of the author’s own life with the character of atlas. it’s nice to know that there are other people deeply attached to atlas in this way. i can lift my own weight.

Weird, but not bad. There was a mixture of some postmodern devices, which I wasn't expecting. I think winterson has an honest and vulgar author's voice, I find it kinda realistic.
