So says… "You want dreamily yearning speculative fiction and incisively immediate critical essays? Look no further than the incendiary talent of Pear Nuallak, as they traverse multiple routes and roots of being in words. Their first collection is exactly that: a true collecting of thoughts, ideas, dreams, desires, insights, insistences, urgencies and pluralities that will leave you feeling gathered along with ‘all the strange, gorgeous sensate forms that experience the world’. From a haircut that changes everything (or nothing) to meetings in dreams to freeing all the waters of London, this is a book you will want to carry around with you, reading bits to your friends as voice notes at 2 am, and finding companionship in rage and hope."
