Wow. I’m in awe. This concept just continued to expand and expand and encompass so much more beauty and difficulty as it grew. The technical side of this writing is genius. Would be 5 stars if not for a slight doubt that this exact narrative structure was 100% effective. There was a building sense of a “reveal” that never quite came, but that ended up being what I thought all along. So I’m wondering if some of the mystery or uncertainty throughout was completely necessary/clouded the poignancy and clarity of the themes which were already so complex…nevertheless, this is EXCELLENT. Please read.
