Really enjoyed this little book and it's second half. These two novellas felt far more connected to me than a book and it's sequel, and it's odd to me that they're bound and sold as two different books. Priced as two books, as well. Recommended read, though I wish they'd sell the two books bound together for something closer to $15-20
as per title. more stories without the usual american conflicts and cartoony villains. more utopias and less dystopias. more writing that challenges our belief and makes us think, even if shortly, about the possibility of a different world. the relationship between the two characters is beautifully narrated.
sweet, beautiful, simple and short. this story came to me on the heels of a hard year, which itself was following a couple more hard years. sibling dex and mosscap were precisely the guides i needed to recenter at the end of this year and think about how to bring a little bit of tea monk energy into the next chapters of my life. i'll be rereading this one.
