  1. Summary

    “so if it's not too egotistical to call myself the protagonist of my own life, then may i ask, where's my ‘representation’?”

    “monarchopsis” is the collection of letters written amongst a group of kids staying in a psych ward where talking (along with just about every other basic human right) is prohibited. if you’re not seething with rage at the world by the time you’ve finished this novel, i haven’t done my job.

    this story deals with unfiltered and visceral retellings of grief, ableism, childhood trauma, abuse, eating disorders, sexual assault, and the mental health of those affected.

    Summary

    The eve of the march to Enbarr, Ingrid can't sleep. Though the end of the war is near, she finds herself dreading the future. Peace is a wonderful thing but it brings with it its own brand of fear. One that she can't fight with a lance or a sword. One that strips her of her autonomy, of her choices. She can only think of one person who might understand: Sylvain. She doesn't expect him to have answers or to take pity on her but she needs someone to listen tonight and tonight, he does. More than she hopes for.

    Summary

    Sometimes, Sylvain wished he had no good memories of Miklan. Maybe it would’ve made it easier. To hate his brother more, to hate himself less.
    But Miklan had taught him everything about fishing, from the best kinds of bait to use for each fish to the posture he should adopt to avoid getting stiff, before sitting on his back and holding his head underwater until he’d passed out. He used to peel and slice apples for him when he was too sleepy to do so, and was the gesture less tender just because he liked to throw the knife at him afterwards?

     

    or, Sylvain, someone who wants him dead, and someone who wants him to live

    Summary

    Later, when he stumbles across Felix in the alley between the dorms and the sauna, crouched low to the ground and stroking a gray-striped cat, Sylvain still can’t find it in himself to be mad, mostly because he’s too busy trying to convince his heart to keep beating.

    It’s just Felix, he tells himself. It’s just a cat. Two things he sees every damn day, and yet, when you put them together like this, the sight is lethal enough to kill him on the fucking spot.

    Sylvain is a liar. Felix sees through him.
