julia armfield writes how i sometimes see the world and i think thats beautiful.
the unique way in which she describes things makes me simultaneously shiver and slowly clap because it’s clever in its simplicity. i loved each of these tiny little stories, and would happily read full lengths novels of them all. my favourites, ones that immediately stood out to me and i won’t be able to stop thinking about, were: the great awake, the collectables, stop your women’s ears with wax, cassandra after, and salt slow.
