This week, a must-story of mourning and more octopus-centered literary fiction.
Octopi are having a moment in pop culture, and in this work of literary fiction with shades of Denis Villeneuve’s, a doctor hired by a tech firm travels to a remote archipelago to investigate a very smart, very dangerous new species of cephalopod.for these times, this multi-narrative debut novel goes deep into the vibrant blocks of eastern Queens to trace the lives of five young girlfriends as they come of age in a city full of endless opportunity — and endless heartbreak.
Now, nearly five years later, the actor-comedian has channeled his grief into words. The result is a memoir, in the vein of Joan Didion’s, that allows the reader into the dark recesses of a mind that’s been nearly destroyed by the utmost tragedy. The reading experience is as painful as it sounds, but — especially in our current cultural state of overstimulation bordering on numbness — it’s an essential exercise in empathy.
