I don't really get it, but still kind of liked it?
I enjoyed the abstractness of the story and the disjointedness of the time aspects. I don't disagree with the salience of the point Death made but it kind of felt like an exposition dump in a movie.
Not that I'm a good writer (or reader tbh) but I think focusing more on the first kind of writing and less on the second would have connected more with me.
It seems like a gem to me. For those who don’t “get it” just think about what it evokes and follow those thoughts. That’s all there is to it.
