Day 3 #LibFaves25 Seven Stories Press presented FIELD NOTES FROM AN EXTINCTION by Eoghan Walls. I expected to merely endure this book but I loved it. Laughed and cried for the Great Auk and over Irish hunger.

Finally cracking this beast that seems like a lot more than a conventional bio. I figured if ‘Erotic Vagrancy’ by Roger Lewis has been around long enough to cameo in an Almodovar film, it was time to read the copy I bought when it came out in ‘23.
