    I still haven’t read any joy williams but ive been collecting them whenever i see them purely for those 80s style vintage contemporaries covers that katie merchant posts all the time glorifying them and making for a random thirst of mine

      it’s an odd one! it definitely feels like the YA version of All Fours, though it’s still worth a read! hope you enjoy it! and would love to know your thoughts on it!

      @@nathansnook of course! lately i’ve been reading a lot of bataille and rimbaud, aside from authors from the decadent movement in general. one of my favorite books is notes from the underground. i like japanese classics in general (mishima, akutagawa, oe, abe, dazai) but yuko tsushima’s unsentimental approach to grief always has me speechless. i’d say some of my favorite themes in fiction are death, surrealism, sexuality, memory, trauma, existentialism, satanism, grief, and queerness. the more brutal, the better, but not in a boring melodramatic way

      @@embalmingfluids oh my god with this exquisite reading taste, i have the director for you: Gaspar Noe. i think THE film you have to watch by him is Enter the Void. deals with all of the above tbh!!! you will feel so queasy!
