i'm so excited to find another reader i can talk about her books with! i like spoons too, but my favourites are the vet's daughter and the skin chairs. my icon is from the first edition of the vet's daughter.

i found barbara comyns thanks to another author, helen oyeyemi, mentioning her work frequently in interviews – she described the vet's daughter along the lines of 'a girl starts levitating and people think it's rude manners' haha.
