Sam
is starting
Very slow start but i think its building towards a reveal of sorts, though I’m not sure if it’ll be in 100 pages or 400.
Regardless like 3 different plots are going on and its been a bit of a painful ride. Handjobs, cat torture, and beating up kids are the fuel I was given to get through this, so Im doing my best.
I dont think I ‘get’ it, so idk if I’ll read more Murakami if this doesn’t turn out

Lot more Oedipus, but the plot is good and going somewhere

It’s picked up a lot in the last 70ish pages and I’ve found myself really enjoying it! Still some very strange things going on, but mostly good ones now. Only a little bit of Oedipus Rex.
A bunch of threads/colors are starting to take shape, but in a very abstract way I’ve never seen.
