Almost done inside story and it was a welcome conversation even if I would have preferred perhaps a straight novel. Just have the addendum to read. So I don’t know much about Christopher hitchens aside from his connection to amis and I did indeed think he had committed suicide. Maybe I was thinking of his mother. It sounds a bit weird to write I was happy to hear he died of cancer but I was happy to read that his death wasn’t from suicide. Going in with my false belief and amis talking about suicidal ideation being in his mind early in the book I thought this was foreshadowing and cemented the idea even more so when I did reach the end I did get a little surprise from a book that I didn’t think was gonna surprise me at all. Almost a happy ending or maybe just a happier one given the subject. A pleasure to read as always
