I've been thinking about Belano and Lima's characters as they are represented throughout the interview sections (I'll post this under the first part of the interview section, too). Any thoughts about whether you saw changes in the way they are represented throughout the interviews? I'm interested in the roles of memory, time, nostalgia in transforming people's recollections and understandings of the past, so I'm currently re-reading the entire interview section to see if I can trace any patterns the second time through.
We had tons of fun in this group!...but yeah, I admit my feet started to drag towards the end of the novel...
Well, the first part of the novel was discussed here https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...The thread you're in now, is for discussion of chapters 13-26 . As you can see, most people was feeling a bit tired by then... :P
