A Children's Bible by Lydia Millet
5.0

I adore Lydia Millet so much and I adore this beautiful strange parable (? allegory? magic spell?) that so fully condemns "the parents," who have gotten us into this mess of a ruined world. So fully condemns us, while also loving us, so fully seeks hope, while also making it clear that hope resides outside of us, without us, beyond us. Our moment is fleeting and thank the heavens for that.
