Review of 'Notes from the Burning Age' on 'Storygraph'

Some very interesting ideas: a mindful society that has converted sustanibility into a religion.  Long descriptions with interesting comparissons with nature.

Some quotes:
"Grief never leaves, but life layers itself on top of the pain, time forming fresh scabs over bleeding wounds"

"idealists, to see the light in all things"

Review of 'Notes from the Burning Age' on 'Goodreads'

Beautifully and darkly poetic, there's a lot here about the value of life, the fallacy of human elitism, and the bleakness of history. It's not an easy read, and as far as stories go, it's not one with the beginning, middle, and end. But it is a slice of a very dark life, and not a bad read.
