This is one of my favorite chapters in this book. I don’t know why. I just think that, structurally, it works. It’s easy to read, it moves quickly. Most of the time, when I write, I don’t feel particularly proud or smart when a chapter or a passage comes together. I more feel relieved - and happy, because I enjoy reading it. This chapter does that for me.
