i just finished the counterlife
Oh wow
Thoughts?
I honestly don’t remember it all that well anymore
i understand that the whole point is that the book was an interpolation of the same story in many different interpretations
but it made it a very confusing read
What was the conflict between the brothers
One of them was having an affair?
they were both involved in various differing affairs
i would say that the main conflict is about conceptions of the “good life”
the playboy vs the father, the jew and the heretic, the diaspora and the independence
I should read more of the Zuckerman books
