Review: Lucky’s by Andrew Pippos

A fable of the fickle nature of fortune.

The second novel I’ve read this year that is all about labyrinths, and I loved this one.

Brandon Taylor’s followup collection to his debut novel Real Life continues his exploration of queer Black Midwest life. In one stream of stories we meet Lionel, a maths researcher recovering from mental illness. When he meets couple Charles and Sophie he starts down a complicated path of desire, exploitation and recovery.

I’m sure I’m not alone this year in finding comfort in nature, and that’s definitely reflected in three of my fav reads this year. More than that though these books all worked their way into my brain where they’re continuing to make new connections.
