📕🤡 New Review! 🤡📕 Death of a Clown by @catherinemccarthy.bsky.social "It’s impossible not to be deeply moved by the journey of self-discovery of Chester Brown the conflicted clown. McCarthy’s foray into dark fantasy has only reinforced her label as a rising star of British speculative fiction."

Sometimes, when I despair of humanity (as I did this morning), I need to remind myself of moments of calm I've experienced along the way.
