compelling work with unreliable narrator(s?) about the effects of war and the use of writing in revealing/concealing the truth. definitely heed the content warnings, especially for the first part, but also throughout the other two!

This book is solidly on a list I like to call "Books I absolutely love and would never recommend to anybody". Amazing, incredible book, but set aside a day or two to be fucked up after reading it.
