A collection of kindnesses

  • Suture is a tenderhearted lucid dream that I know I will return to when I need to quench my spirit and recharge my inspiration to be a better friend, lover and artist.

  • I fucking adore this book, and you should read it. That is all.

  • This is not a book for the faint of heart. But books about women making art never are. The imagery is layered so beautifully in this book. I could write essays about it forever. It’s heart-felt and vicious and beautiful all at once.

  • There were some gruesome parts that were unsettling, some tender and heartfelt moments and even some sad events that reflect the realities in life with mental illness. This is a book that I’ll never forget.

  • A wholly original, fantastic debut! Brewer offers a most interesting perspective on mental illness and creating while conjuring a full spectrum of vivid images and emotions. Suture is grotesque yet delicate I was absolutely blown away by this one! Brewer's prose pulled me in and completely overtook my brain.

  • Brewer's command of her nimble yet stirring prose reimagines and relays without hesitation, the invisible realities of art-making. This one is worth shelving among your favourites. And yes, I devoured it in less than a day.

  • Fearlessly surreal, this metaphor captures an deep look inside the cutthroat arts industry. It’s surreal and stunningly relatable.

  • For a debut novel, Brewer's ability as a fiction writer is utterly established as courageously mighty.
