Gut-wrenching and tore my heart but maybe that plot isn’t completely for me and that’s okay! Some parts also clearly shows that it was written in the 50s
What di foq????
But also what di helliante? What di foqq ?!>
Summary: bisexual commits emotional terrorism in Paris.
Takeaways: ???? ?????vv??v?
I do really like this though.
Not sure how he invented the most selfish person ever as a main character but very cool and gets the point across!
Cool themes:
- the room / housing situations / spaces we call home. I liked how he used the spaces to reflect characters internal states.
- denial still changes us.
- morality and relationship to the body. ESP the dead baby thing. I feel like I’d need to read the book again to clock all this cuz I wasn’t watching for it at all.
- also what was up with the sailor
- defining ourselves through our relationships with others and how well we role play the expectations given to us by society. I liked all of Hellas lil monologues. These guys r all psycho and cooked but I’ve never seen a man much less one from this era clock the female experience so accurately……
Per the last point I can’t comprehend the emotional intelligence it would take to have this take from the life I know James Baldwin has lived …
I also liked how well he summarized the predatory relationships in this book. From father to son to Jacques and David to Giovanni.
Not sure wtf the whole “America” v “Europe” thing was abt but it sounded edgy so very cool thanks!
Overall definitely the edgiest thing I’ve read so far
