Some take-aways and wonderings:
Margery Kempe (circa 1550) was long dismissed/diagnosed with various mental illnesses. Nowadays, (with maybe more seeking than ever for psychidelic experiences) it seems she had something interesting to say.
If you like to read and are heading to grad school, be careful not to lose the joy.
Probably people of all descriptions could enjoy a shift away from how hetero romances dominate mainstream storytelling.
On the plus side, it sounds like there's starting to be more of a place at the serious/critical table for people interested in exploring the bodily delights of reading.
How would it upend "religion" if more people went to the bible and other "serious" texts looking more for visceral, bodily feeling rather than doctrine/dry facts?
- itwaseverything 10y ago"people of all descriptions could enjoy a shift away from how hetero romances dominate mainstream storytelling" I wouldn't ever expect this to happen. The super majority are heterosexual and gravitate to the relateable and familiar. Nothing short of everyone turning homosexual will change this fact.
