Difficult read. The narrative is complex and nonlinear, with bits and pieces coming back or taken from other conversations or lines of thought. Like a washing machine the story tumbles back and forth to finally arrive at the end of the story, after which you need to take the washing out to dry.

That's what I am doing now, still mauling over the story to let it sink in.

Beautiful but complex. This complexity at times also hampered feeling connected to the story.
