A review by 1_and_owenly
Fudoki by Kij Johnson

5.0

While I enjoyed the poetry of The Fox Woman, I felt Fudoki in my breath and my toes.

Maybe it is because I have spent more time with cats than foxes.

Maybe Kij Johnson grew as a writer and I as a reader.

Maybe it was that the format was more conventional.

Maybe it was all of those things and none of them.

I savored every last bite of this book with its freedoms and stubborness and refusals and curiosities.
