It hurts how good this was.

Sell me on The Last Samurai, what is so good about it?

Really entertaining with an interesting view of motherhood from a po-mo perspective. Reminds me of if one of the characters from the Secret History had kids.
It was ahead of its time in projecting the pseudo(faux)-intellectual millenial attitude that has blown up culturally. Plus it has stream of consciousness elements that are actually done well and not just masturbatory.

Is the main character the pseudo(faux)-intellectual? Because I hate narratives that do this, even when it's parody or satire. I just cant stand it.

When she's younger (in the vein of Secret History type classicist) but once she has the kid she realizes she doesn't know shit.

Have you ever read the Invention of Morel by Casares? Or the Shadow by Americo Paredes?

Great book. I heard about it on this board years ago. I can't shake the feeling that i need a reread because there is more depth in there than I was able to reach at first.

Genuinely unsure if anyone on this board has read Henry Green
