Ok so I just finished Katabasis by RF Kuang, and am I the idiot for wondering why people dislike this book? I fucking loved it and I've got to say, if this is considered to be one of her weaker works I'm so excited for her other works (especially The Poppy Wars)

When I’ve stood at the edge—
when I’ve plunged down,
into the chasm beneath
all experience—
descended deep enough
to lose myself
a time
or two—
become turned around,
and broken down
into nothing—
what then grows
in my place
synthesizes
my findings.

He tenido un poco de mala suerte últimamente con los libros que he ido leyendo porque han sido un tanto decepcionantes, pero ahora mismo me estoy escuchando #Katabasis y leyéndome #TheTaintedCup y estoy enganchadísima con ambos. Estoy ahora mismo de viaje y quiero ir leyéndome los dos a la vez jaja

[Spoilers "Katabasis"]
Another "Katabasis" thought: both main characters hide behind a stereotype, I think.
Alice is deeply depressed and traumatized. She uses the Asian-American do-gooder who is after gold stars as a mask.
Peter has a disabling condition and varying number of spoons. He uses […]

That's certainly possible. But could she, would she choose to, mask as a carefree, scatterbrained genius? I am not sure.
Genius without effort is so strongly male-coded I can't see her getting away with it. People would tell her to dress differently. They would talk […]

[Spoilers "Katabasis"]
Ach, come on. Now the draft is finished: my (spoilery, so under a CN they go) thoughts on gender-swapping Alice and Peter, the two grad students venturing into the underworld in R.F. Kuang's "Katabasis".
Alice could be Al, I think. Asian-American boy with loving parents […]

[Spoilers "Katabasis"]
When he's groomed and assaulted by his advisor, he's on his own not because he should've known better, but because this doesn't happen to men. He tells no one, spirals into depression until he breaks.
Yeah, that works. Needs work not to tap into anti-gay bigotry but can […]

Para os acadêmicos e pós graduandos recomendo a leitura de #Katabasis da #RFKuang. Tô achando sensacional a fantasia da autora... Parece q a experiência dela tá sendo traumática... hahaha

3 stars. This lacked the depth I was expecting from Kuang. I found it rather boring. I loved the concept and the themes she tried to explore but the execution was lacking.

Sometimes you need a palate cleanser with a page turner you don’t want to put down. Wonderfully written, imaginative and thought provoking. I now need to learn more about logic and paradoxes.

I've enjoyed two novels by #RFKuang but #Katabasis not so much, mainly because Hell is less fraught than expected (perhaps to make the point that Cambridge is worse?). I did like the conceit that Dante and Virgil provided travel guides to Hell. Not convinced by the love story. #booksky

“The bazaar is built to distract…There’s a million things to keep a soul from writ-ing, all in the service of making you better at it. Remember that…Hell is a writers’ market.”

I have been meaning to upload my book review spreads since the new year but it slipped my mind. These are all my January reads and it was a decent month reading wise! #booksky #readingjournal #katabasis #buryourbonesinthemidnightsoil #watermoon

A page of text from the book, Katabasis by R F Kuang. It mentions the main character Alice walking to Cambridge’s train station to prove she left college, but mentions that it doesn’t count as Pembroke and Downing are down there.
Though I’m not sure on the sentiment, very pleased that @pembroke1347.bsky.social gets a shoutout in #Katabasis.

Just started this book. As an academic that went to grad school, the premise is wild. As a Grad student, I don't think I'd go to these lengths for a Letter of Rec. But as a Prof, my ego is big enough to want to be important enough to my students to save me. #Katabasis #AcademicSky #RFKuang #Proflife
