This is much more prose poetry than actual short fiction and being square I liked it more in the parts it was the least autobiographical and the most like standard prose fiction

overall i enjoyed it, the writing style took a while for me to adjust to as it feels like poetry in prose form, which at points made things quite confusing because of the punctuation. i think i would have enjoyed it more if i had read each story separately instead of reading it as a book.

Sometimes overly precious and interested in playing with language over telling an interesting story. Not always in a bad way, but sometimes in an annoying way. Well worth reading, all the same.
