• Holding Suffering Close: A Little Life Play (2023)

  

  I get to cross off one item in my bucket list: to watch this play live. A Little Life was achingly, amazingly, and brilliantly adapted in this production and let me tell you why.

• Review: The People in the Trees by Hanya Yanagihara

  

  5/5☕ | The People in the Trees slowly morphed into this thing that I can’t stop thinking about. And now, I am convinced that each second of it was intentional. It reads as it feels: suffocating, fascinating, disturbing.

• Review: A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara

  

  5/5 ☕ | A Little Life is a brilliant study of human emotions and how complex trauma can have lasting effects in one’s later life. I am a fan of books that elicit strong emotions from a reader, whether intentionally or not, and this book definitely delivered on that front.
