rip bob you will be missed, i cried at your deathsomehow you can still relate to some of the characters in certain ways. i love the message of how bad wordly possessions are. also, for once, i think the move adaptation of the book is equally as good. im planning on re-reading this book while listening to the soundtrack (dust brothers, the soundtrack is excellent) so, yeah. i love this book. made me really think.

Probably a lot more relatable than it should’ve been, but what can I say—I’m a working class communist insomniac who has loads of intrusive thoughts about violence and spends most of their time feeling simultaneously suicidal and terrified of death.
