"Picked it up at Waterstones. Tragedian narratives especially exploring trauma will always be of utmost interest. So far, very disjointed. No chapter numbers. So yes, it does feel like you're travelling through the mind of a person with complex trauma." Jan 31, 2026 11:50PM

“[…] in dark rooms, mapping out
each other’s bodies,
claiming whole countries
with their mouths.”

Jeanette Winterson, Written on the Body

“Mother says there are locked rooms inside all women, kitchen of love, bedroom of grief, bathroom of apathy. Sometimes, the men, they come with keys, and sometimes the men, they come with hammers.”
Warsan Shire

Ocean Vuong
“You want to tell him it's okay that the night is also a grave we climb out of”
Ocean Vuong, Night Sky with Exit Wounds

Mieko Kawakami
“My monolithic expectation of what a woman’s body was supposed to look like had no bearing on what actually happened to my body. The two things were wholly unrelated. I never became the woman I imagined. And what was I expecting?”
Mieko Kawakami, Breasts and Eggs
