A review by nlfharrison
The Book of Dirt by Bram Presser
5.0
Disclaimer: I know Bram
But also: Within ten pages I completed forgot I knew the author of this book
Formally playful, simultaneously tender and charged with a righteous anger. I’m floored by the soul of this book, by the yearning for history and the bitter strength of survival. We are built upon a foundation of narratives that we can’t know.
A truly beautiful book, this is going to stay with me for a very long time.
