I can't believe how something that was BAD and LOLTASTIC and kept on being so for most of the work was literally transformed into something beautiful and heartbreaking that made me sob. Now I want this in hardcover.

I know Gideon was really divisive, but I think Harrow is going to be one of those books most people think is disappointing and then it's realized as genius years later. But the people who love it are REALLY loving it. (My people! My intense narrative-obsessed people!) I could be wrong tho, the Jason Sheehan review for NPR (don't look, Lunabee!) really nailed it. Muir makes Nabokov's metafiction look like a dryasdust box of bones.

(SORRY NOT SORRY)
