On chpt 2 of @sophiegilbert.bsky.social’s book and recalling Bethann Hardison’s “Invisible Beauty”. There’s a chilling moment on the shift to girls from behind the Iron Curtain. Showed, not told, how intersecting vulnerabilities left them more exploitable than adult models with literal agencies.

I’ve been reading these lately. I keep them nearby on my shelves because they are examples of an artist using their craft to tell their story, and their history. Poetry, illustration, manga, comedy and even architectural design. These books remind me why art matters, why craft and intention matter.

Feeding Ghosts by Tessa Hulls is one of few books that I would describe as a tour de force. It is layers on layers on layers grappling with inherited histories, stories, lies and responsibilities where complex matrilineal pain is tied to national myths in a moving, intricately illustrated way.

(This post was inspired by Hanamotogari by Schwinn and Bingo Love by Tee Franklin. Both are beautiful reads that made me cry.)

“Paris” is a cute story about breaking the rules and finding love, a Cinderella story where the leads save themselves.

And Emily Carroll’s latest is one of the best modern/contemporary gothic stories I’ve read in a while. And the COLORS 💖. Carrollms work only gets better with each book.
