"Alan's smile was intensifying into serenity."
The various deus ex machina of the plot just tumble out unadorned until Starritt tries to get prose-y and writes a line that makes no sense whatsoever.
For now though I still want to know what's gonna happen

Pissed off that I'm enjoying this. Excited for the Dostoyevsky collection I've queued after so I can get back to being depressed.

Awkward prose (that line about "He felt in a way that only a 21 year old could" came out of nowhere. Who is our narrator here?) And I do not think I'm equipped with the right class background to really care about either protagonist.
That said, I'm not fully bored yet, so we'll see where it goes.
