I keep finding parts I have something to say about:
The way he talks about avoiding grief after such a blow in his youth and how even her death would make him feel slightly better. Or little things like after getting spooked by something the night before, he doesn’t go in the water that day. The way Murdoch writes these details is nuanced so that he’s relatable even while we cringe at his blind narcissism.
