City salaryman gets trapped in a hole by villagers.
The woman there spends every night digging the sand around the hole to prevent it from caving in on her.
Which life is more pointless?
- he argues that human progression should mean that her work is unnecessary
- She is like an animal, singularly focussed on survival (and sex)
- No community or culture
- Whereas he bemoans how fake the trappings of ‘cultured’ life is, hiding the true meaningless of human lives
This book is too overtly meaningful… the metaphor is too on the nose, I think
تصویرسازی داستان خیلی ضعیف بود.
ترجمه خیلی خوب بود سعی کرده بود دو فصل ۲۰ و۲۱ رو با کمترین سانسور و بهترین شکل بیان کنه.
موضوع کتاب خیلی عجیب و جالب بود .

Spectacularly suffocating and unsettling - this novel is one of the best nightmares I’ve ever read.
