"i love it. reminds me of virginia woolf - makes me feel less alone in how well selin's coming of age is captured - but it's modern and funny. i wonder how batuman curates this perfect mesh of overlaid stories in this order. and i really like the -mis monologues + the orchestra story. im amazed at how, in just 1.5 pages, such a full resounding story of universal loss could be conveyed so simply in a naive lens." — Jul 19, 2026 08:38AM
