It was an interesting tale of a man trying to solve the mystery of a fictitious author’s overarching life truth spanning over twenty fictitious volumes. Here, the reader is merely an observer, and reading about three people trying to analyze literature (without access to the fictitious books) was too meta for me.

“literature was a game of skill, and skill meant courage, and courage meant honour, and honour meant passion, meant life.”
