what a goopy gloppy experience! zhang addresses systemic issues like racism, colonialism, and white supremacy through sexual taboo, physical sensations, and lots and lots of Bodily Fluid Imagery. this book's spirit is clear, visceral, necessary, and oh so sticky. warning: lots of use of the word CUNT. love that for her!
