I once watched this movie where the guys house was on fire the whole time, in a constant state of burning down. Everyone saw it, everyone somehow knew why it was burning. They understood it. But they never talked about it. It was kinda like oh yeah you‘re house is on fire... hm. Meaningful glance. THEY NEVER EXPLAINED IT. It just was. Helen Oyeyemi makes me feel that kind of confused. What am I missing?!
