Honestly this may be the information I needed to make the leap

Love Katherine Addison. Have you read Arkady Martine’s A Memory Called Empire? Does a related thing for me.

All new to me and sound amazing. I’m next on the library waiting list for The Book of Love so I know what I’m doing next! Thanks times a million.

China Miéville and Rachel Cusk are mine. Maybe something to read on the way home from work? Thank you for offering!

It’s really fun! Pairs well with Mark Arax’s The Dreamt Land

"But refusal, which is only sometimes a kind of poetry, does not have to be limited to poetry, and turning the world upside down, which is often a kind of poetry, doesn’t have to be limited to words. Words are useful for upending the world in that they are cheap, ordinary, portable, and generous and they don’t mess us up too badly if we use them wrong, not like if we use matches or a machete wrong, but poetry is made up of figures and figurations and syntaxes as much as it is made up of words. We can make a poetry without language because language as the rehearsal material of poetry has made the way for another poetry, that of objects, actions, and environments. This is not saying to be a poet means you only have to rehearse turning over the world: now try putting the chair on your head."
