they think it's some autoimmune-induced haemofilia of some kind... (that was the speculation before I had the tests). Will be interesting to see if they've found anything.

I have an ORCID, I like my ORCID, and I use my ORCID. But I agree with Simon: this view is not widely shared in our discipline where it is seen as a coercive tool of surveillance and oppressive research assessment.

I'd like to say that there was something awry with the book's structure, too. At the halfway point, I definitely thought this. But as I said, by the close I was so invested in the text that it turned out to really work.

I was also curious about the Frida Kahlo connection. The protagonist in the book is gay. FK's affairs are documented - but only, as far as I recall, the ones with men. Perhaps the chronologies just didn't align.

Also: Kingsolver did it again. 40 pages from the end of _The Lacuna_ and the protagonist suffers a grave injustice that left me outraged and furious! She is excellent at stirring emotional investment and then punching the reader in the face with it!
