Haven’t read The Waves, will check it out. I mostly find things like Project Hail Mary still entertaining, ie borderline rationalist fic where the main character is portrayed as deliberating. Once you start noticing how no one discusses options in most fiction it makes a lot of it difficult to stomach.
What fiction, if any, have you found to be compelling in the recent years of your life? (And do you have a sense of what made it compelling?)
As an aside: I’m curious if you’ve read The Waves by Virginia Woolf, and if so, what you thought of it.
