Y'know, it's not fair when there is a character who seems to exist purely to make me cry. So thanks, Ms. Thomas, for Vante 😭😭😭

I was cherry picking scenes from this as examples for my writing class, but then I got sucked in and had to start reading this again.

I don't normally swear on GR, but my boy Gogol is off his shit. These stories are bonkers."The Nose" is pure absurdist pleasure.

Younger me really liked this book. Older me is pretty disappointed with younger me right now. I thought I would reread this one because so many of my students love it. It's not terrible, but I'm having a hard time justifying all of the male, middle class whining as satire.

Yes, still crying.

Still crying...
