Shock value
I sat in silence for a good thirty minutes after finishing this book, it struck me in a way no book had ever or has since.
The main character is a drunkard (Hemingway's self-insert), and is retelling the story at a bar; he's already smashed. That's why many parts of the story don't make any sense. It's safe to say that's not really what happened.
He had a """"gf"""" that cuckolded him in the real world and so murdered her in the book world.

Do you think this is why he went his whole life hating women and writing about his perfect wife, and got divorced like 4 times? All from 1 Italian nurse? That's fucked up, senpai.
