Wow. I mean, just wow. This book is simply magical.

I recently finished Emily St. John Mandel's [b:Station Eleven|20170404|Station Eleven|Emily St. John Mandel|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1451446835s/20170404.jpg|28098716], and there's something about this collection that reminds me deeply of it - the future nostalgia, in a way, and the way Calvocoressi writes about the forest. This book is full of strange characters, and you never quite grasp what's going on. But somehow, that's ok. It's such a beautiful exploration of gender and family and all the things that makes life strange, and I don't even think I fully have words for it. Just perfection, honestly.
