Mary Oliver’s Rules for the Dance,
“A handbook for writing and reading metrical verse”
Oliver’s a poet, won a Pulitzer, I needed to learn metrical verse, seems like a great match

Just finished Billy and Girl by Deborah Levy. Didn’t really know her - it was just a random recommendation on Goodreads - but this was very good, and now I definitely need to read more of her stuff.
Big recommendation if you are up for something short, sharp, dark and funny! Very 90s, starts out sort of a satire on England, consumerism and the ide of the family unit, but then moves into stranger places. A bit like Martin Amis at his best but without the macho bullshit.
And now I will take a deep breath and dive into The Books of Jacob by Olga Tokarczuk. Have loved her other ones, so now’s the time to tackle the big one.
