just finished this after reading about 30 pages a day, it's p much philosopher fanfic but i love all the nuggets of real therapy ideas thrown in there and it's dialogue heavy so it's easy to read!

beautiful beautiful story following a single chess game and the players behind it, set post world war II. makes you think and feel deeply. i read the entire thing on a single flight and think about it often. i really really wanna be able to read it in german one day.

β...we can not love or think except in fragments of time each of which goes along its own trajectory and immediately disappears."
second calvino of the year after invisible cities. very meta, which in less serious hands could become cloying. it manages to work out.
you (the real you, not the second perspective protagonist of most of the book) will think about the act of reading in a different way by the end of it, or at least become more conscious of it. so read if you like to read and read about reading.
