As long as they killed people with conventional rather than nuclear weapons, they were praised as humanitarian statesmen. As long as they did not use nuclear weapons, it appeared, nobody was going to give the right name to all the killing that had been going on since the end of the Second World War, which was surely “World War Three."
strange and funny, if a bit confusing at times. so much of the book felt like world-building, like the waiting period before the story really starts. but the pacing works itself out, so it's alright. didn't really understand the ending, but i'm sure it's quite clever if you do.
