I just finished 1260 pages epic by China Mievelle The Rouse. and i think I need to re-read this thing again. holy fuck what a ride. 12 days to finish with a day of drinking in between. This is one of the best books I have ever read.

The writing is very modernist with disjointed prose constantly switching between action and stream of consciousness, shifting back and forth with time and reset in next paragraph. the book is 32 parts with 4 chapters in each part. 2 of them follow one timeline which is a woman journey and grief in recent timeline. And 2 other chapters in each part follows a 1950s British army soldier. Somehow these are interrelated.

most of it is set during cold War when we follow the soldier story.

there is a lot of references to leftist revolutionary figures, western imperialism, gladio other euro CIA like orgs and stuff. Lots of references to other international things as well which I cant say.

I pre-ordered this book and went in totally blind didnt even read the blurb. I didnt know the genre of this or anything. Didnt even look at tags on goodreads or whatever. extremely surprised. also very beautiful writing

This is not really theory but inspired me to look at other countries revolutionary movements.
