"But I have swam through libraries and sailed through oceans..."

These words, once again, encompass the entire novel. I am beginning to beleive that if I choose to blog on every instance where a line, phrase, paragraph, or chapter represents the novel as a whole, I will be blogging for all eternity. This novel is so involved with itself, it is almost astounding. Obsessively, I read every line looking for a vast meaning, which I yet have failed to find. It seems every word swims with suggestion. Libraries, oceans, words, waves, poems; they all flow, undulate, blow our minds and wash away our land-locked blues (Bright Eyes).
