On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong

5.0

i mean the opening line in itself drew me in automatically. this was so captivating - the characters, the relationships, the symbolism, the stories - i mean all of it had its own hidden context and meaning that was explored, but at the same time...there was always something left unsaid that would leave me wondering and curious.

this was the work of a true poet. from beginning to end. i might have to reread for more annotations bc the rhetorical choices were impeccable. vuong just got a HUGE fan out of me.
