Mehso-so

This felt a bit more bogged down than I Love Dick. The section that really delved into Simone Weil in particular was difficult to get through. When Chris' own story is able to push through, she shines. Still heavily marked by my pencil, I recommend it as a follow up but it's a bit more of a slog.
