Wow. On surface level a story of the violence and brutality of humankind across a desolate landscape. Further examination of themes throughout bring light to the commentary on war, fate, and religion. There’s a lot to unpack - too much for just my first reading. I look forward to continuing to read between the lines on multiple read-throughs in the future for a further examination of all there is here.

This was too much for me. DNF.

Everything about this book just works, the convoluted writing style only adds to the surrealist horror and hyper violence, just a simply amazing book and piece of art

the universe is no narrow thing and the order within it is not constrained by any latitude in its conception to repeat what exists in one part in any other part. even in this world more things exist without our knowledge than with it and the order in creation which you see is that which you have put there, like a string in a maze, so that you shall not lose your way. for existence has its own order and that no man's mind can compass, that mind itself being but a fact among others.
