2666

Casey just wrote he’s excited to put part four behind him and I know exactly how he feels. I’ll hold off judgment till I’m done the entire story but wow, hey? Wow.

Reading this section has made me see I’m not as close to being desensitized as I had previously thought. It just keeps going and going. I’ve had my jaw drop a few times and felt like bleh after reading for an hour. Reading about the deaths doesn’t get easier, it gets harder. It feels like it’s all piling on.

What a contrast from the first section.

The folks from Infinite Summer who are gearing up to take on 2666 have asked a few people to keep track of certain parts of the book (having someone keep track of all the dreams is brilliant). Good luck to the two people marking down all the deaths.
