Disassociation
Surface level in that this person is named this and this person is named this and morphed into a fused yet separate account of me being my persona online critiquing, obliging, and deciding to ignore other said personas becuase no one can be as fake deep as you.
Loved the way the writing was very airy and cerebral. Didn’t mind some of it going over my head and tooted my horn on every account that I could follow. No pun intended. I had a hunch about the discovery once in Berlin but I did not expect the the ending to turn everything on its head. By the wrap up, I kinda felt like yes bf was and is shitty but also she might be a close second.
