A bit too short to feel fully-formed, IMO. Torres is clearly a skilled writer - I'll look forward to reading Blackouts
Beautiful. A true embodiment of what makes comics an art form. Every detail on every page is there for a reason.
A specter is haunting the Iberian Peninsula: the specter of bisexual throuples
Definitely an MFA Thesis Book which isn’t necessarily a bad thing but it did mean that i could predict almost every plot event and emotional beat from miles away
In a just world this book would be considered an American classic on the level of Gatsby or Catcher or something
Deliriously disturbing, laced with shocks of humor. I love the briskness of Brian Evenson’s prose. He moves through scenes and conversations with knifelike efficiency.
Great audiobook to listen to in a moving van with your father over the course of three days
This book was about a lot of other things besides just writing, not all of which I felt needed or deserved an examination as thorough as what Cain does here. Also I think many of my artistic/literary values are just fundamentally different from hers (IDK why she dislikes plot so much?) but still it was cool to read a clearly extremely intelligent person thinking through topics she cares about a lot.
