Currently around halfway through the return to France arc. Am I alone in thinking this part is incredibly dull in comparison to the rest of the book?
>>24094249I actually thought the first bit was the dullest, but perhaps that was the point, the dullness of Paris pushes Bardamu to impulsively enlist.
Why do people love this book so much? Is it because of the authentic tone? Is it because people find a friend in it or they relate to it? Admittedly I haven't managed to make it to chapter 10, but I couldn't find anything that fascinated me. Maybe my view of art is too rationalistic.
>>24094322FILTERED
>>24094348Yes, filtered, by the amount of cum Bardamu's girlfriends were receiving from other men.
