All of us with wings is a masterfully crafted story that explores themes of love in all of its forms; from the complex guilt-ridden love, we still hold for those who have betrayed or abandoned us to the love and hopes we hold for the children in our lives, to self-love gained from sexual pleasure and the experience of caring for others and losing someone you love. This book shows us the raw gorgeous journey of a young woman healing from violation and abuse, in all of its messiness and beauty. It is a story of finding yourself through finding a place and people who feel like home. Full of luscious prose and characters so real they seem to breathe of dialogue you can almost hear and sentences that melt like chocolate on your tongue this book is impregnated with magic, marinated in dark fairytales and full of deep truths that are painfully necessary. This story is like a great golden onion, layers of other stories, of creation myths and music, of movies and poetry, and the things that make a world feel real and visceral. This book joins a canon of great and important stories, the tales that change you, that feed you that tell you who you are. This is one of the best books in the world today, I hope that you decide to pick it up, open up to its magic, and let the words fill you and rearrange you, the spell will be with you for the rest of your life.
