“Beyond the Pages: Lidia Yuknavitch Reveals the Hidden Depths of ‘Reading the Waves'”
Organized in 15 titled, nonlinear, braided essays, Reading the Waves is a return and a cycle. It’s also a bit of a love letter to Virginia Woolf and Devin Crowe, Yuknavitch’s former husband, her son Miles, her current husband, Andy, her dead daughter, Lily, who resides in the ocean, and also Margurite Duras and Georgia O’Keefe, and maybe also Louise Bourgeois, and the Pacific Northwest, and trees and rocks. I cannot possibly list them all here because, words, letters, space, and water cannot contain them all.
