This book has been my lockdown sanity: it's such a gorgeous, gentle evocation of imaginative, impossible travel through spaces and times connected by interpersonal connection, by dreams and by desires. The separate stories, each uncanny and gorgeous, fit together into a kind of Borgesian parallel universe whole – if you attend to the details within details. One character describes the project as a "trans cartography," bending the map of how we imagine, relate and narrate.
