ryoko kui never misses
#<- a brick#beepbeep.txt#finally read through all her short story collections (at least the fan translated ones)#might post my thoughts on each of them because they're really really good and i hope more people read them#they're a lot more ambiguous and a little more grim than dunmeshi which is perfect for me#'the dragon's school is on top of the mountain' especially.#everytime i finished a chapter i had to put my phone down and stare into the middle distance#it's also interesting thinking about the themes she dwells and elaborates on over the course of her work. the theme of (mis)communication;#of what it means to be a hero; of empathizing with the monstrous and/or bestial; of struggling to think outside of a system that made you#it's good stuff!
