My immediate “Zone of Interest” take is that it’s not about the banality of evil at all, and that’s a total misreading. It’s about the machine-like compartmentalization of the modern Western mind

Yeah i didn’t read BRAT at all as an “online” or “internet” novel - it’s all about manuscripts and tapes and isn’t “voiced” by some chronically online narrator - it’s mainly about family and drinking

You want to talk 'lazy writing', @RhianSasseen ? You've lied about the contents of a book most won't have read yet, I guess bc you wanted to force an engagement-bait, 'internet lit bad' piece. Brat has almost zero internet shit. He's in a haunted house - his phone doesn't work!
