Great Joy - am i more cynical than i was when i started this book or are these stories becoming more cynical as it goes 👀 some of this hits a little too hard
“An orgiastic monument of American sentimental nationalism operated entirely by people who know nothing about the United States except that they were ruthlessly used by Americans for years?
Well, I suppose it is not wholly improbable even on this plane.”

The Building - i started updating these separately by story but i realized i was mistaken because they were all written and organized together on purpose. it’s not a normal narrative arc but it’s not a collection of short stories either. also funny that i realized this about a greater purpose during this particular story before i even got to the end 😂

Wake Island - hated it. it was too dark and was unnecessary imo for the point of the story might have been. or even if the point was to be that dark as part of the novel as a whole i found it to be too much.

Woeful Tales of Mahigul - i liked this one a lot. it was a few even shorter stories within the main short story lol. i found this one interesting because the people’s behavior seemed so similar to humans, maybe more than any of the previous stories. but maybe that’s because it’s just easier to see the negativity/power seeking right now. i think the last one was my favorite (The War Across the Alon)
