My Lesbian Novel by Renee Gladman Like watching open heart surgery on the very idea of the novel, Gladman's latest brilliant book is a mind bending, mind stretching, mind altering excavation of making meaning with the written word. www.portersquarebooks.com/book/9781948...

@zunguzungu.bsky.social gets at much of what I admire about the novel here. But I also just loved the narrator from the first page. Her off-hand observations of herself and others, her sense of their absurdity and her own, all reveal to her a need to discover what she doesn’t understand.
