Sea & Fog by Etel Adnan
“A poem is an atom. Better to leave it alone. Who needs more nuclear explosions!”
I think I would have enjoyed this as a teenager or in a more meditative state, or even maybe more as an audiobook, but as an ebook it somehow felt like a slog through a haphazard stream of consciousness - jumping without grace from the sea to the meaning or God in a modern world to climate change to racism to the weight of female beauty and through all sorts of pop culture references. I still want to read more from Etel Adnan, this just wasn’t the time/place/prose for me.
