Black Wave by Michelle Tea
4.0
detach/rewind/fast forward/a death
There is a sense of wading through as the reader, awash with the disturbed, swallowed by lapping timelines and reaching for something tried, something true.
Black Wave recognises the overriding themes of anxiety and dread as surging, prevalent yet often misplaced. The reality of end times brings a washing sense of relief, an emotional reaction to grief customarily somewhat unspoken.
Coming to the close of the book, Tea in her signature hands us a beacon, radical openness to near futures, a thought to where we are headed; lesser burdens.
