Thank you for the written guidelines on how to create, build and raise a new government from scratch, it just birthed a new threat (me) for the current government. Jokes aside, it was actually a quite saddening read for me. We can see how it inspired Ataturk’s vision for Turkey.

the influence of edgar allan poe is clear as day. shiro hamao’s style quite similar to poe’s. the first story is unapologetically queer and misogynist. the second one is an interesting whodunnit/whydunnit, it’s a wild ride that constantly had me guessing. if you ask me, my guess was much better. the plot twist in my head was the discovery of odetari being gay. i feel like it was always hinted that way.. or am i tripping? the motive for the murders would be more tragic if seizo and odetari were lovers; whether he did it out of sheer jealousy or by accident. then all that mystery would add to the tragicality of it all if odetari kept silent to hide his queer identity.
had my eyes on this gothic novella for a while. i thought it would be perfect for spooktober. a sapphic vampire story that precedes Dracula by nearly three decades? it’s the blueprint baby! i was hooked from beginning to end.
