'Black and iridescent, which could not be skimmed over.'
Fantastic, compelling and complex. I read this for my Expanding Queerness module and can't wait to discuss its themes of self, persona, memory, historicity and erasure. I'm sure I could read this book over and over and discover something new every time. There's so much in here - excellent character design, intricate thematic networks, multiple narrative modes, and a tightly-plotted mystery. Masterfully done.
