Love love love love love love. Oh, my love. Sitting here astonished.
The prose reminded me of Virginia Woolf. Don’t ask me why I felt that, I just did. This book is gorgeous, totally breathtaking. A spatial meditative and metaphysical odyssey. Using the backdrop of space and astronomy to explore down-to-earth human behaviors and experiences. Very unique to have your novel set in space yet mostly talk about what it’s like to be on Earth.
I was truly in awe of this thing. FULL REVIEW TO COME.
“Maybe human civilization is like a single life — we grow out of the royalty of childhood into supreme normality; we find out about our own unspecialness and in a flush of innocence we feel quite glad — if we're not special then we might not be alone.”

Well that's very weird, because as I'm reading this book I am thinking of Virginia Woolf. Then I read your review. Great minds!
