The book is structured in four parts that are named after a bunch of the characters. It doesn't really care as much about like the arc as it is the individual characters and what they're feeling. Like if you can't throw a good left hook then punch with your right hand, you know, or kick or something. But don't trick yourself into thinking that the other guy won't throw a left hook if he's good enough hooks. Tell the truth through whichever veil comes to hand, but tell it resign yourself to the lifelong sadness that comes from never being satisfied.
