wow detroit institute of arts mention

what bugs me about this writing is that you’ll have one piece of good dialogue, one good image, one good tonal shift and then BAM hit with some Philosophy/Literary Criticism 101 explicating the “merit” the “weight” of what was just said like please whatever happened to show not tell please show not tell come back i’m begging youuuuuu.

it’s been ages since i’ve read!! i love reading!!

i feel like the voices for the different perspectives really blend together though??? i think this may be because akbar doesn’t give up the long ass metaphors/imagery in each voice.
