59. Sweet by Dani Couture & 60. Troubled by R.M. Vaughn
I picked both these books up — along with many others — at Geist magazine’s recent moving sale. Watch for a post over on Lemon Hound about the state of bookselling in the city of Vancouver very soon.
59. Sweet by Dani Couture
Bitch Magazine’s review of Neko Case’s Fox Confessor Brings the Flood likened that album to Ukrainian folk tales….all dark animal imagery and danger in the woods. The best parts of this book are like that, enticingly foreboding and deliciously dark, with an urban sensibility. Beautifully designed by Pedlar Press.
60. Troubled by R.M. Vaughn
I’ve wanted to read this since I heard Vaughn discuss it on CBC’s Q right when it came out. A poetic memoir of what happens when therapeutic transference leads to a sexual relationship, and all of the fallout that ensues. Captivating as a car crash.
