A review by jonfaith
Copenhagen by Michael Frayn
4.0
You live and breathe paradox and contradiction, but you can no more see the beauty of them than the fish can see the beauty of the water
It was provocative to read this when midway through S3 of True Detective. Both entities plumb the nebulous foundation of memory. Both resound with a perhaps amateur understanding of the Uncertainty Principle. (Frayn explores the translation of term in his lengthy afterward) Alas, Copenhagen features physicists Bohr and Heisenberg and the artistry of this representation appears almost musical--though likewise abstract. There is an active interrogation of culpability which is more a meditation on agency. I thoroughly enjoyed that.
