I was sort of reading this book begrudgingly, but wow am I impressed. There’s an almost Franzenian quality to how far Lerner let’s his sentences and digressions unspool, but all to a greater purpose. A kind of loving, exhausted picture-in-pieces of how broken and misled and guilty and self-blind we all are. Not a fun read, per se, but (I repeat) wow. Impressed.
