Wow, this was so lovely from start to finish. The story is great, but what I really love is how you approach language, it’s inventive and it activates my brain in ways that its not used to. The imagery is so vivid, the rhythm is great, I kept reading...even skipping ahead a bit and having to catch myself and slow down because I was caught up and wanted to keep going. Really like it, truly. :) Also, excellent use of the word “thingiemaggige”. Hehe.
