Absolution by Jeff VanderMeer
4.0
Jeff here could write 10 books about AreaX/Southern reach – and I would read them all!
He‘s my entry to weird fiction, just as G.G.Marquez was my entry to magical realism.
This book is divided into three parts, and oh how easy it would be to release 3 different books, make the font a little bigger, margins a little wider, scale the illustrations. It would be so easy to make more money from the same art. In today's publishing environment, I think Jeff Vandermeer had to stand his ground a lot to release one book, and I respect that!
I’m so excited to read his other books. A new author in my all-time favorites shelf!
