Usually I read relatively without context, but in this case I wish I could recall what led me to this book.  I feel like if I asked someone to write a parody of a french movie, this is what would result.  The cycle of interrelated people and the complicated happiness (?) of their relationships is certainly well-written, and somewhat interesting as far as that goes.  It's this mindset and viewpoint that I find stale and irrelevant to my life.
