the branches of a tree, barely moving in the wind some twenty meters away, completely occupied my attention, despite the fact that I hadn’t taken my eyes off the Gravity Rainbow I was reading.

I’ve lost sense of the plot and I’m just enjoying the sentences.

This book reminds me of the song “Medicine Bottle” by Red House Painters.

1st rule of Gravity's Rainbow: Never shut up about reading Gravity's Rainbow.

I’m going to read this book twice in the end. I read a paragraph, then go back to the beginning of it. The first time, the story moves past me like weather. Names. Events.

I go back. I read again. Sentences show their teeth.

I read so I can re-read.

I’m just starting, and I feel it’s not going to be love or hate toward the book. It’s a hate-for-love kind of book.
