What a great analysis! I have just finished the book not many minutes ago and jumped right into searching for substack reviews to back up my own view (I hope I am not alone in doing this when I dislike books). I think your points about Anolik's style and absolutely desperate voice hits the mark dead center. I couldn't agree more. I have some additional points I would like to make about that last chapter, and I will certainly refer to your on-point review when I get around to writing them.
