part 1 - he floats around families of miners, working class, slum areas, money spendings, types of characters amongst different types of people and all that, in a prose-style that not a lot can replicate. it's lyrical and elegant, but also gritty and grounded. i read on-here that part 2 isn't as good? but i believe it'll be a decent read nonetheless

was out so as usual, the form factor of his individual penguin editions are handy and i am actually surprised? like it's so unlike the orwell i know of, at least in writing style. its similar to the DAOIPAL, about poverty and decrepit living spaces, it also has an omnipresent feel? our protagonist mainly functions as a peep through into these people's lives. fascinating stuff.
