After reading (and absolutely loving) Death of the Author by @nnedi.bsky.social I was quick to pick up Broken Places & Outer Spaces! There's so much insight and power in this book about her own life. Seeing her perspective was so inspiring and I'm amazed by her ability to turn pain into art #booksky
