This book is definitely not going to be for everyone, but it’s the kind of book that was absolutely for me. There’s not really a concrete plot, just a beautiful collection of moments. It really feels like poetry in prose format. Highly recommended for Sapphic folks, people interested in the early 20th century, poetry fans, and people who love books that don’t fit traditional conventions in fiction.
