Reading The Making of Americans by Gertrude Stein after WM would be the equivalent of self flagellation.

I believe I've now made a personal breakthrough with the reality depicted in WM: it's not an apocalyptic scenario (which even before I started reading seemed too straightforward and conventional to be the case, plus where are all the dead bodies?) The landscape painting in the house is a strong clue, that may or may not have a person in the window. It's the emptiness of a landscape. I'll expand on this in my review.
