A Bestiary

It was poetry and narrative and memoir. Absolutely fascinating use of language and image.

Satisfying. Transportative. The introduction alone had me reeling. Unforgettable.

I love this book! I had to read it for my english class, but I really fell in love with her writing and the structure of her novel. I'd recommend this to any type of reader!

one of the best books i read all year. vulnerable yet biting.

A class assignment.

This book is probably the best memoir I've ever read. It places powerful, punchy anecdotes from the author's life alongside fairy tales, scientific research, and mythology, combining to create an unparalleled reading experience. A truly stunning read.
