Status Updates From Son of Nobody

did not see that coming at all omg

oh this is beautiful!

im really enjoying the book. the way the protagonist switches back and forth between his contemplation about his family and the translation of the greek epic is so dynamic, its gripping and evolving with every moment. i'm gonna be sad when this book is over.

okay i need to talk about this book.
a historian specializing on homer, he reads and re-reads the papyrus on which the epics were written and one day he finds a certain line- "i am here because of Psoas of Midea, son of nobody".
a person who never existed in any historical remarks.
and then he finds out the trojan war and Psoas are related and he goes nuts and now im going nuts!!!!

Got the advance reader copy of Yann Martel's upcoming novel and by the first look, it's gonna be a thrilling read. Gotta pull back Homer from Limbo to sit with me and contemplate while I read the book-

This is one challenging read - feels like I’m at a uni lecture
