I hope Edith didn’t do anything crazy 😱

Could not have predicted all that happened today. Plot is getting better. Could genuinely see myself re-reading the book with the new context in mind.

I wonder to what extent pity was involved in Kekesfalva marrying his wife, and if this will come up in the future. The narrator’s realization that he hasn’t taken the time to really dig into the history of the people he’s been visiting for a month also makes me think a lot about the relationships I take for granted.

Really really liking the book so far. Love the inner turmoil of the character and the direction of the story.
