"I think i was a bad person before. Before this time. I do not try to be good now but i am not bad. Perhaps if i try harder i may get a better hand dealt next time? But surely that makes it pointless? Perhaps i am good. Just good at being pointless. But that would make me bad. Bad at having a point. Ah…. I see now. I was nothing before, I am nothing now. I am bad purely because im pointless. "

I'm trying to read slow. This seems to be the pace of the book, so I'm trying to follow suit. Unlike other books, where we got off to a running start.

Yeah, it does go slow. But that's OK.

I HAVES MY PREEEECCCCCIIIIOOOOUUUUSSSSS!
And I'm 170 pages in, and think it's pretty good. Slow paced ... but you don't drink a fine wine too fast either, you know? Of course, I made the mistake of chugging down a bottle of cheap, strong wine while reading, and wound up falling asleep for a while, so I'll resume reading shortly ... with maybe a bit of re-reading, since I forgot those last thirty pages already.

I finished the book last night. Im not sure what to think. I feel bludgeoned. Perhaps a re read will help....
"I think i was a bad person before. Before this time. I do not try to be good now but i am not bad. Perhaps if i try harder i may get a better hand dealt next time? But surely that makes it pointless? Perhaps i am good. Just good at being pointless. But that would make me bad. Bad at having a point. Ah…. I see now. I was nothing before, I am nothing now.
