A masterful thriller. It seduces you into falling into the same mindset as the protagonist, looking for meanings within repeating patterns, until a serious turn marks a decided disgust that renders the story in a new, horror-full light.
A seemingly endless flow of allegations, encountering series, study on sign and signifiers, compulsions of the subject and object (aka cosmos).
I was ready to give this book 3-3.5 but the profound darkness it evokes is no easy feat, and I progressed to learn to enjoy it further and further into the story.
