Hummingbird Salamander

Hummingbird Salamander by Jeff VanderMeer - click image to read more about book

The Southern Reach Trilogy was exciting and adventurous.
Borne was funny and touching.
Dead Astronauts was difficult and almost boring in its obscurity.
Hummingbird Salamander is like falling through a tunnel filled with very recognizable but completely incomprehensible stuff you bounce off. It’s unpleasant and confusing, but also interesting and not something you often experience.
