Scribe Publications Room Called Earth

A brilliant debut from a neurodiverse author that explores a young womans magical, sensitive, and passionate inner world. A young woman gets ready to go to a party. She arrives, feels overwhelmed, leaves, and then returns. Minutely attuned to the people who come into her view, and alternating between alienation and profound connection, she is hilarious, self-aware, sometimes acerbic, and always honest. And by the end of the night, shes shown us something radical about love, loss, and the need to belong. Autorid: Madeleine Ryan
