“It was the beginning of June; summer was arising out of spring, like an aloe from a field of grass.”

— Gabriele D'Annunzio, from The Book of the Virgins (Hesperus Press, 2003)

R.F. Kuang, Katabasis

[pontiuspilatesprincess]

Best moment of Katabasis so far is when they meet the cohort of dead students who voluntarily stay in Hell when they don't have to, because they'd rather stay charred ghosts if they're the charred ghosts of prestigious Oxbridge attendees rather than risk reincarnation as a farmer or laborer. That bit is C.S. Lewis-worthy.
