Status Updates From Libra

Create coincidence so bizarre they have to believe it. Create a loneliness that beats with violent desire…Desperate men give their solitude a purpose and a destiny…A self-watcher, a man who lives in random space. If the world is where we hide from ourselves, what do we do when the world is no longer accessible? We invent a false name, invent a destiny, purchase a firearm through the mail.

Already the power of suggestion in the language works beautifully with the historical fiction side of things. Some pleasant sentences to read aloud already, with ambiguous fate underneath it. Really a thrilling read so far.
