I recently excavated Morgenstern's The Starless Sea from my to-read pile and devoured it with the same kind of desperate ardor I always have with your books. (After enjoying Night Circus I'm disappointed in myself that it took so long to get to it, but I am now on my second reading of Starless Sea.) I hope you have had the chance to read it, as well, because I think she resonates on a similar frequency to you. I will have to put Kate Atkinson's books in my queue based on your recommendation!
I have read it! Erin's one of those writers -- like Cat Valente -- whose imagination just seems fathomless. No bottom. And her work seems effortless, even though I know she must work incredibly hard to achieve that effect. (Like me she's a slow writer. Though not AS slow as me.)
My favorite work of Atkinson's is LIFE AFTER LIFE. But they're all good -- love the Jackson Brodie books.
Remembering that you have been extraordinarily generous with readers who wanted that moment with you.
“Life after Life” is so beyond she deserved someone to gush and grovel. She shouldn’t have been so genius. Not your fault.

Have you met, Erin? She’s clearly also a fan of yours! I’ll have to plow through Life After Life before Bright Sword comes out.. thanks!
