Between editing and reorganizing bookshelves, I have finished two books for #Novellavember! These two are very different, but I was delighted by both!

America's political elite has decided that climate change is no longer that important or worth talking about, but rest assured, it's still happening, it's extremely bad, and yes, it is going to affect you here in America.

📚 38. THE TAIGA SYNDROME by Cristina Rivera Garza. I'm a sucker for any novel that starts out with a private investigation which then turns into (a) something supernatural, (b) something Surrealist, or (c) a psychological exploration of shattering identity. This book turns into (d) all of the above

Really enjoyed this fine essay...Love the entwining of archives/appendix and writing/identity. "The ruse of the literary first-person singular cloaks our lived first-person plural."
