Gorgeous writing, did terrible things for my intrusive thoughts
If I was smarter and less nauseous I’d love to think more about how the context in which this was written (writing for a rich nonce as a way of putting food on the table) impacted the form of the stories, but I’m not gonna do that. All I’m gonna say is some of the stories really felt like a big “fuck you” to the collector- like oh, you have a boner? Time to chop it off.
