Vro this book is genius n also crazy horrifying

Kind of insane

If I had a Time Machine the first thing I’d do is go back in time and find w. g. sebald a crazy kiss with tongue and I’d make him alchemize my being into one of his diaphanously sad closeted British guys who stares in askance at miasmic memories and the quotidian tendrils of evil… it’s pride month and I can queer anything I want. but also this book is So Gay to me

I need to stop reading minimal avant-fiction im getting tired of it!!!!

currently reading it in the fuckass picture book format

im in my gay incel reading era

like yass diva omg

loveee her omg but probably understanding like 60% of the Greek stuff

wow This may be The Book ... what a stunning introduction I love this 10/10 it's already fantastic

how many more times am I going to read stories of how people's parents' met (Rushdie, Eugenides, Chabon, etc.) even though I do dig it... I just find it hackneyed at this point. I feel that she uses lots of narrative sleight of hand -- the writing is subtly clever and imaginative

thinking a lot about James Wood's "hysterical realism" -- how many more books am I going to read with longgggg prologues about how the characters' parents met (Middlesex, Adventures of Kavalier and Clay...) I dig it though ... I do .... maybe I just find it hackneyed at this point. there's a lot of narrative sleight of hand that I enjoy here. I should be annotating like "hmm she introduces this here" but lazy

I love Mr Bennet

He’s soooo cool

I’m the first person to log this book on Goodreads no big deal

omfg this is consuming me

lowkey bars

God sends his gayest books to his laziest soldiers

I like blue!

books about Harvard make me inexplicably mad. we get it.

she's literally me
