<\/i> by Katherine Dunn. I had such a strong response to that book when I first read it (years ago) that I haven’t picked it up since. But it has stayed with me. Emily’s just written about it<\/a>– and her words remind me of my own whirlwind of emotion when I first read that thing. Damn though … it’s such a damn painful weird awful book I don’t know if I want to subject myself to it again! Like I said to Emily in the comments over there: yes, the ending is awful. But there’s also a painful painful beauty to it. Redemption in the middle of a wasteland. Love – the kind of love that pierces you like an arrow. It’s unforgettable.<\/p>\nIf anyone who reads this decides they want to check out Katherine Dunn’s amazing book, this incredible work of fiction – don’t say I didn’t warn you!! It’s killer.<\/p>\n
