What a pleasure to have a strange, (smol) flash story up at Five on the Fifth. <3

Have a peep if you want a 6 minute read and a small dose of oddity.

Belatedly finished this brilliant book by the amazing @kallen21046 Strange, mythic and disorientating - and also deeply poignant at times. Wild dreamlike storytelling as if from a collective unconscious. I loved it. @CRPress @cwaleicester @EverybodyReview
