“What she did learn from all the books was something else, something she hadn't really been expecting, which was that the story of loneliness is much longer than the story of life. In the sense of what most people mean by living, she said. Without children or partner, without meaningful family or a home, a day can last an eternity: a life without those things is a life without a story, a life in which there is nothing - no narrative dramas - to alleviate the cruelly meticulous passing of time.”

I had enyoed reading part one of this trilogy, Outline.
But here I couldn't make out what it was all about; I didn't feel connected to the half-hidden concepts/ideas.
I'm still looking forward to reading part three, Kudos, though.
