These days there are people who are unapologetically doing violence against people in the name of wildness. This journal is a collection of writings by people who agree with them. Poetry and essays that celebrate anti-humanist action for the wild.

pickSweet graphic novel based on the Author‘s life. It takes you through her childhood, and dives into unpleasant, happy, and repressed memories. The illustrations were wonderful, and the color scheme was pretty and soft. I enjoyed all the 80‘s references being an ‘86 baby myself :)
Starting this graphic novel. My goal this year is to read more books in Spanish. This got a lot of praise, and is part of a series of graphic novels I believe are based on the author.
so-soI really enjoyed the unique structure and concept - 618 short passages, some authored by Shields, while others are quotations, bits of interviews or other materials to fit each chapter's theme. Those themes also cover interesting intellectual topics on the fraught border between fiction versus nonfiction. But I kept hearing this implication that traditional fiction is tired and some new experimental fictive nonfiction is superior somehow 👇
"We must all get away from the false commercial standards of "beauty" imposed on us by movie moguls and advertising firms, because the youth/beauty hang-up sets us against one another in a frenzied competition for attention, and leads in the end to an obsession with self which is death to real affection or real sensual love."
