Please join us for Symposium's September Book Club! This month's meeting will surround Anne de Marcken's "It Lasts Forever and then it's Over". This piece of speculative, haunting fiction explores the world of life after death.Thursday, September 19th. 6pm. In-store. See you then!
"Anne de Marcken's It Lasts Forever and Then It's Over is a superb and feral work, moving without hesitation through grief, through dust, and therefore through time. The sighing soil, oh. It is a soft rumination, a devastating ode to lateness, solitude, yearning. To the fleeting body. It is a quiet thing filled with contradictions―about movement and then stillness, or about rows upon rows of objects, planted or felled; about repetition. Are we not all planted or felled? I located myself on this crossing. I will return to it more, more. A gem."
