We are not doomed. There is still hope. As hate begets hate, love begets love. The choice is ours. We may escape the cycles we've inherited, we may be the masters of our destinies.
This book just keeps getting better and better. Life is beautiful and so is the human race.

Very curious to see where this will go, so many loose threads.

I can't put my finger on why exactly, but I'm really enjoying this. The lack of a clear plot 160 pages into any other book would likely piss me off, but here I just feel so swept up. It feels like such a loving portrait of the totality of the human experience: love, hatred, jealousy, greed, generosity, hope, despair, callousness, tenderness.
Every character, every vignette is just so unmistakably human.
