- Reposted by Isabel Cañas📣 New novel announcement: ANNA DREAMS OF A DEAD REVOLUTIONARY is coming from @tinhouse.bsky.social in 2028. When people ask what it's about, I say it's like SOUR CHERRY, except the haunted house is Greece, and Bluebeard is fascism. 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈✊ Keep writing your queer, trans, antifascist books, friends.
