I've finished: This World is Full of Monsters by Jeff VanderMeer

If you want to experience the ideas behind the post-singularity alien invasion VenderMeer is famous for in a short and fast paced package, look no further.

Weird, horrifying and beautifully mind bending.

Bescheid geb: #JeffVandermeer hat in einem Anflug visionärer Überwältigung einen vierten, dicken #AreaX-Roman geschrieben: »Absolution«.
(Geht mir als Salieri-Fan gleich einer ab.) Erscheint im Oktober.

Im Juni gibts vorher 10-Jahre-Jubelausgaben der ersten drei Bände mit neuen Vorwörtern von Karen Joy Fowler, N. K. Jemisin und Helen J. Macdonald, sowie neuen Covern von Pablo Delcan.

Ich hoffe doch sehr, dass der dann auch bei Kunstmann bzw. und/oder Knaur rauskommt.

Borne (2017) by Jeff VanderMeer. A tender biohorror masterpiece about love and loss and the struggles of maintaining a relationship when a childlike new party disturbs the balance. I'm in awe of how neatly the allegory for motherhood fits into the vivid scenery, never overshadowed by VanderMeer's outbursts of creativity that created the most memorable monsters. I liked Annihilation just fine, but this is the book that I'll come back to.
