Could you please message me privately so I can ask a question?

I’m trying to get into the Popul Vu — it’s a piece of Mayan literature that covers their cosmology. Interesting and challenging story telling. Does anyone have experience with it?

I can’t remember all the character names but I remember a lot of surprises. Keep having fun with it!

I’m smiling.

My memory of my gargantuan journey through that gargantuan tome is bitter sweet. King creates so many characters we adore — and more that we despise.

I believe I saw it as a working through of the Bush Jr administration and I went so far into this thst I began a chart of the which real life people the characters represented. Like many of my ADHD projects, that one didn’t bear fruit but your bring up this title makes me smile.

Orwell offers so many hidden gems. I recently read Keep the Aspidistra Flying which kept me absolutely captivated and I could not get over how contemporary it feels.
