Love the beautiful Spanish countryside setting. Fishing for rainbow trout, drinking wine, & taking an afternoon nap sounds ideal. Love the friendship between Jake, Bill, and Harris. The fuse is certainly lit between the friends 💣

Traveling the Spanish countryside drinking wine & hot rum punch at a mountainside villa is something I need to experience. Bill sounds like a terrible person but also a good friend. All these characters, with the exception of the Count, are miserable (and alcoholics).

End of book one. Not much has gone on so far, just getting introduced to the characters and their endless drinking around Post-WW1 Paris.
“You see Mr. Barnes, it is because I have lived very much that now I can enjoy everything so well… That is the secret. You must get to know the values”. …
“You haven’t any values. You’re dead, that’s all.
No, my dear. You’re not right. I’m not dead at all.”
