The cover of THEOPHANIES held up against a row of books and in front of a mirror. The cover looks like a tapestry on various shades of brown. The title looks like it has been stitched onto the book.

the U.K. edition of @sarahali.bsky.social’s THEOPHANIES is finally here. I’ve been so excited to read this for so long. Sarah Ghazal Ali is one of my favourite writers 🤍
