This is a navigation of pain and sadness, and also a celebration of love and good times. There’s a beauty and optimism here. Definitely recommended.
User Profile
I’m interested in a multitude of things, including social justice, socialism, history, poetry, magical realism (fiction), capitalism, race and class struggle, plus stuff like wine, baseball and music.
So mostly non-fiction, though I read maybe two novels per year and maybe one poetry collection.
