This chapter is divided into two parts. The first part is a Kafka-esque bureaucratic nightmare of two characters. What struck out for me was the attitude of the characters (more on it later) and how no one knew what they were doing but were full of jargons. I really struggled with this part cause I just don't know where it was going. The sentence structure is also absurd, it goes on and on.

The first chapter shows a bunch of poor people(?) stuck in a dead city. There is a merging of reality and fiction. I guess the landowner is back and they know they are caught and so are hopeless. Weirdly even though the city is dead, apparantly there are people coming her to settle.
Very confused , and feel like missing out on the core.

Reading this after he has been presented with the nobel prize. Sky high expectation but feel very foolish reading this book. I feel like , I am not getting the beauty of the book. Every page seems to mean more than most probably it is. I don't want to miss out.
