Novella. Essay. I DON'T THINK OF YOU (UNTIL I DO) is a needed novella of our time. It explores the narcissism inherent in infatuation, exposing the awkward, disorienting state of passion, and articulating the comic nature that permeates the melodrama of our existence. Tatiana Ryckman chronicles the struggles of a long- distance relationship, forming a series of unsent musings to the beloved by the unnamed lover--all while keeping names and gender anonymous. At times funny, this sexy, charged, and deeply felt novella captures what loving from a distance can bring upon all of us. <br /> <br /> An elegiac and dirty and horribly beautiful examination of love and the lack of it; Ryckman has written the anti-love story within all of us. A book so earnest and sharp in its examination of heartbreak, it will make you ache for all the people you haven't even loved yet.--T Kira Madden<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p> </p><p>"Tatiana Ryckman has written a wonder; a remarkably accomplished work of such keen observation and emotional complexity as to rival those texts--Maggie Nelson's <em>Bluets</em> come to mind--with which it shares some literary DNA. Ryckman is a ruthless investigator of reckless desire ... <em>I Don't Think of You (Until I Do)</em> asks--newly, stunningly, with precise prose chiseled from stone--what it is we're meant to do when the source of our appetite is beyond the realm of our own cognition, and following this narrator in pursuit of the unanswerable is a reading experience as gutting as it is thrilling. One finishes this book with the simple thought: Now here is a person."--Vincent Scarpa, <em>Kirkus Reviews</em></p><br>
