Carnivalesque wants to read Jump: Black Anarchism and Antiblack Carcerality by Sam C. Tenorio
Carnivalesque reviewed 77 Fragments of a Familiar Ruin by Thomas King
a review
5 stars
Thomas King wrote one of my favourite books ( the truth about stories [2003] ). It seemed inevitable that I would love his first collection of poetry. Wry, referential, touching, and bitter - a beautiful recueil.

My review of Lessons in Birdwatching
3 stars

4 stars
Fantastic novel. As Kushner says in her introduction "Formally, stylistically, [Balestrini's novels] are in a category alone." The change in style as the narrator's political consciousness is awakened is a great thing of art.
