We finished Katabasis. Tears were shed. Screams were uttered. Angsty text messages were exchanged. One could say that we had strong feelings about it.

Along the road to discussing a well-crafted ending, Jess and Maggie examine what it means to tackle the writing of grief and frustration, the normalization of immigrant culture, Jess's obsession with floppy hats, and just who R. F. Kuang might have intended her audience to be.
