I’m liking this book more with these added chapters.

This last chapter was so absurd. The book has basically no plot and is just creating ridiculous scenes.

The female lead’s name is Maga. She didn’t realize how sick her infant was and though the male lead had an idea of the severity of the child’s condition, he went out to watch a crappy piano premiere. When he got back the infant was dead and the lady thought it had gone to sleep. All of her friends are over when she realized what had actually happened.

I’ve learned that you’re supposed to read the first 56 chapters of this book and then read it in a specific mixed-up order that includes the later sixty or so chapters and some of the first dozens. Many of the chapters so far have been this artsy group listening to jazz early in the morning while exploring their pasts.
