mixed responses - k patrick's writing is great, staccato rhythms, I think this abruptness works and its nice to see it in this more languorous setting rather than, say, mccarthy's wild west . the dynamic between our protagonist & Mrs s is about as typical as you get for lesbian romance (although a few scenes enliven it) - so much so that I feel the latter half's emphasis on CLICHE as a motif, a theme, speaks broader. if, Romantically, the moon, the Atlantic are lesbian, why not cliche itself? maybe maybe

radiant!!! gon go find a bunch more of her

so many hands in here!!!

at one point, Sean mentions Coltrane's Live in Seattle album & I think that's ESSENTIAL listening alongside this book. what a wonder. the future fury of it all 

following Baldwin, who spiritually opens this collection, I find it nice to read this in the spirit of Go Tell it On the Mountain w/ the apocalyptic themes & fire fire.... enjoyed sustaining musics  

juicy !

bonney's militant poetics i'm working into .... & eventually arrive at the later work .... I'm excited
