Wonderful to see Stigmata by Scott Jackshaw on CBC Books’ fall 2025 reading list. Stigmata draws inspiration from a broad archive of texts and practices – apophatic theology, body horror, gardening, queer theory, classic films, poststructuralism, and bad sex. This collection takes the confessional mode and weaponizes it. Peruse CBC Books’ full list here to see all of their stellar recommendations.
