Just finished this one on audiobook. I am extremely glad to read a queer book by someone who chose rural life because I‘ve been sad thinking I‘ll have to be confined to the city forever (it‘s hard to imagine being accepted elsewhere). I found some parts of the book a little rough, some parts quite wonderful. I don‘t relate to a lot of it, and I do relate to some of it.

This is a long essay about Felix Gonzalez-Torres, ice, and sex. No, that is just the superficial description. It is about transformation in the uninscribed. The author focuses a lot on the transitions of the body, whether through aging, gender, or death. Also explored are the relationship between love and desire, societal change, and, of course, the transformations of ice (breaking, melting). Complex, but grounded. Graphic, yet compassionate. 4⭐️
