5.0
This short little read of weird, beautiful fiction takes concepts like personal narratives, oceanic consciousness and compartmentalization? and makes them concrete, with some very weird and often disturbing results. I loved it. Descriptions are often grotesque and plot is very confusing, but that’s as it should be.
Moderate: Body horror and Death
