The Argonauts

★★★★☆  book

The Argonauts

A memoir that dissolves the boundaries between theory and lived intimacy, documenting the architecture of queer kinship, pregnancy, and devotion through a partner’s transformation. Simultaneously austere and tender, it proves that rigorous thought and profound feeling inhabit not separate chambers but a shared threshold.

this is one entry from a wandering list of films, books, shows and albums, kept by someone trying to live a slightly more deliberate life.
