A new social center opening in the South is something to celebrate—and support! Our friends at The Burrow / La Madriguera aim to bring people together in Durham, NC, with a focus on mutual aid and building solidarity toward collective liberation. It's been almost a decade since the Triangle lost Internationalist Books, and autonomous, radical spaces are needed now more than ever!

Tomorrow (5/18), Firestorm will be donating net proceeds from all sales in-store and online to help cover the cost of building out this much needed endeavor. Buy a book and your dollars will support their ambitious, community-oriented vision. Don't need books, stickers, zines, or a t-shirt? You can also send donations directly to The Burrow at https://chuffed.org/project/theburrow.

Please help us spread!

The Burrow is completely devoid of progression of the plot - it ends just as it started. But still the protagonist's situation has gotten worse.

The finest tool of the enlightenment ideals - reason and thought - have utterly betrayed the protagonist and trapped it in a prison of its own making.

Makes a fine parallel to a possible reading of the Metamorphosis, and a common theme in Kafka's writing in general. You can think yourself out of this one.

At some point in the past I downloaded Mark Smylies #TheBurrow (or must have, anyway because I found it on my HD despite not remembering it) so I started reading it.

I liked #Artesia quite a bit when I was younger, but this book... I dunno. I have lots of very conflicted feelings about it. :/
