"Considering DNFing, finished Chapter 12 and it feels somewhat lifeless. The concepts of disappearance and the memory police do not feel fleshed out, and the characters themselves feel flat, without much potential. It’s not terribly boring to read, but not very rewarding either." — Aug 12, 2026 03:19PM

“You cannot go on 'seeing through' things for ever. The whole point of seeing through something is to see something through it. It is good that the window should be transparent, because the street or garden beyond it is opaque. How if you saw through the garden too? It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”
