“CUSTOMER: Do you have this children's book I've heard about? It's supposed to be very good. It's called "Lionel Richie and the Wardrobe.”

Vedi, le librerie sono sogni fatti di legno e carta.
Sono viaggi nel tempo, fuga, conoscenza e potere.

51. The Beginning of the World in the Middle of the Night, by Jen Campbell
Owned?: No, library Page count: 209 My summary: A man buys a heart online to transplant into his lover. Children made of grass and leaves live under the watchful eye of doctors and surgeons. And the daughter of death runs a coffin hotel on a far-off island. This is a collection of strange and magical stories, modern fairy tales, all with a hint of darkness at their core. My rating: 4/5 My commentary:
I really need to stop impulsively picking up books just because their titles are cool and their covers are funky. Still, what a cool title, and what a funky cover! This is a collection of twelve short stories, disconnected from each other but for the thread of fairy tale that runs through them all. It's exactly my kind of thing, as I found out. These are the kind of messed up short stories that I love writing - purple prose, a touch of the lyrical, dark and gross and thought-provoking all in one. I can totally see why this might not be someone's cup of tea, but I was totally engrossed. Helps that I pretty much read all of the stories in one sitting - the collection is short enough that doing so is feasable, and I think that's to its benefit. I loved it, and I'm so glad I impulsively grabbed it from work!
Overall, the vibes of these stories were excellent. Not so dark as to be grim and gritty, oozing with magical, and with just enough mystery to see you through to the end. A lot is left ambiguous in these stories, or goes without explanation, which just adds to its mysteries and allows the reader to fill in the blanks for themselves. The prose was lyrical and poetic, strange with its imagery, in just the way I like it. There was a decent spread of perspectives and voices in which the stories were told, so there was no danger of them becoming samey or repetitive. The stories just were what they were - weird, magical, and full of life.
Of all the stories, the one about the plant children was my favourite. I can't pinpoint why exactly that is, there was just something really cool about the idea of children being part-plant, and trying their best to make a community despite not really knowing what is happening to them and what the adults who are obviously experimenting on them are going to do. The titular story was also a highlight for me - presented in a script format, it was a couple telling alternate stories of how civilisation began, and musing philosophically in a very 'it's 3am and we should be asleep' kind of way. I can see how this might come across to people as pretentious, but I very much vibed with it - I've had those sorts of conversations before, and I'm exactly the kind of audience for those quasi-philosophical ramblings. Animals, the first story where there is a craze for buying hearts, was also really effective. The protagonist has bought a swan heart for his lover, but as the story progresses we see that he is actually an abusive nightmare, and he is attempting to force his lover to adore him, all the while criticising others for their choices of heart. It's a deliciously messed up little story, and I very much enjoyed getting into the head of this shitty, shitty man.
Next, it's time to bid farewell to Five Nights at Freddy's.

Technical Rehearsal
You know, sir, there are bones in my body that are yet to have names. Terrifying elevators, pulling me up.
I am all of this, ballooned. Rooms filled up with furniture that is not my own, rented out to cherry trees.
Together we are plays that will go wrong. Sir, I am uncertain in the seasick theatre, counting all of my rooms.
I am a house, sir. A picture of a house. I am a house, sir. A house with birds.
by Jen Campbell

(ep3) CAT2C8175-03042009-22012024
Infection (full body) -/- arboreal [journal entry]
“parasitic-garden-that-whispers-with-the-voice-of-the-woman-he-clearly-murderd-and-sort-of-turns-you-into-a-tree” yes, that is murdered spelled incorrectly, yes that is directly from the script
From what I understand, it appears Dr. Samuel Webber murdered his ex-wife because she'd moved on! still has the same surname but she has moved out. So yeah, this guys NOT okay, then he decides to get scratched up in a garden!
Said garden is "growing wild around the ruins of some bombed-out church." that smells of "an almost overwhelming sickly-sweet rot", and he keeps smelling jasmine.
One of my notes for this episode is "gradual acceptance, embraced end"
my favourite part of this statement, a part that really cements the Strangeness and Acceptance (man really said If i'm gonna become Tree i'm gonna Do It Right);
"my skin is pulling away nicely like blanched tomatoes. My legs will be nonresponsive soon. I need to finalise my position before then ... The roots have freed themselves from the weight of my meat as it sags from my bones and drops to the dirt."
directly followed by
"No greenfly or other parasites. I remain quite healthy."
because yes, that's exactly what I'd describe as Quite Healthy....

I know this is random but how do you see david and jen's relationship?
Blows the dust off my ask inbox to read this like an archaeologist
DW about random I love random!!!!
My interpretation of Jen is slightly weary of men in general and has more inherit skepticism about everyone so there's that. In their first meeting I imagine it was the campers who ran her directly off upon Gwen getting her there and David at the time still had fresh worries about someone doing his job better than him and prioritized being Cameron's #1 still over continuing to try and get another coworker.
I imagine Jen to be rather enamored/overly intrigued by Gwen seeing as how she met a stranger and got in her car with her for assumably multiple hours and was agreeing to work for her so shortly after meeting her. So she may either learn to trust and be friends with David alot faster through Gwen or go the way opposite route and be jealous of the friendship they have
Jen is a gore artist and David pretends to not find it off-putting to be polite.
Jen and David both agree people should be nicer, subscribe to saying corny shit like "the world would be a brighter place if everyone wore their smiles!!!"
I think if they developed something while Gwen wasn't there (AU where she's the counselor to replace her maybe) David actually would subconsciously/accidentally compare her to Gwen too much as a counselor without realizing, and that could cause some issues stemming from the fact he just misses his bff.
Many possibilities of a rocky start but I think they're both light hearted enough and friendly in attitude to have a really wholesome friendship eventually. ((Even if she secretly kills people maybe.))
Jen believes "bad people make the world ugly", and I think even depending on where David is in his character arc would she deem him a beautiful person or just one pretending/kidding himself to be.
