it was amazing
bookshelves: experimental, essays, poetry

I want and need to read this book again. It's very challenging, both intellectually and emotionally, but also deeply rewarding, and I suspect that it would really reward multiple readings. Didn't have time to read it straight through, as I'd have liked, but am going to try to do this. I'm struck by the author's courage... in making a book so unlike any other I've read, in struggling visibly to tell the truth about her father's death, in not settling for any easy answers or forms.
