I just read “don’t let me be lonely” by claudia rankine and picked up “citizen” last night. DLMBL is so incredible that I re-read it immediately. argonauts was my first maggie nelson & I think because I had ZERO context for it I kinda loved the feeling of being lost; but I too connected the most with the last 20ish pages of her birth experience paralleled with harry’s experience, in his own words, of his mothers death. I’m reading “on freedom” by nelson now & am also loving the challenge of it. I’ve never heard of “the hollow half” but it will absolutely be going on my list 💫
Ooo, ok, adding DLMBL to my list! On Freedom has been on my TBR stack for about a year now, and I've been too intimidated to pick it up. I'd be curious to hear your thoughts once you've completed it. I can't recommend The Hollow Half enough! Thanks for reading! 💛
