Enter The Raccoon

by Beatriz Hausner

Enter the Raccoon documents a love affair between a woman and a raccoon. They are a couple that loves without preconceptions, whose being together eschews all limits until their beliefs in the self are put to the test. Their story unfolds each time one surrenders to the other in a sometimes melancholic and cruel, other times joyful, even ecstatic embrace.

This book was pretty excellent! How can you ignore a book about giant anthropomorphic raccoon with a mechanical hand? I really enjoyed the way the this collection of poetry oscillated between sections about Raccoon and sections about the speaker. The pacing was excellent. The language was crisp. The ideas explored were intriguing and complicated and, almost miraculously, intuitive. Thanks, Beatriz Hausner!

Meh... I cant see myself picking up another of her books. The surrealism of this wore off quick and it just read like a self indulgent journal.

I just stopped caring. Wish I had dnf'd before getting half way through. Only finished because it was so short.

One of the most imaginative short stories I ever read.
