god this book is beautiful. somehow both a slow burn and constantly moving. i read love in the time of cholera more recently, which was very good, but thereās something so magical about 100 years and i just canāt recommend it enough
dawg. this book. so full disclosure Iām not done yet but- Iām about half way through and Iām loving the absurdity of it all. It initially felt really odd to read so much Christian lore that I was unfamiliar with (i genuinely felt too Jewish for this book), but once it kept moving forward, the premise really took hold and i found myself enveloped by the writing!! The prose is immaculate too :)
All in all, a great read (so far!) of surrealist fiction that keeps me on my toes.
