Always odd numbers at times like this. What does it mean? Is death odd-numbered?
About a month and a half ago, at the beginning of this pandemic nightmare, I read The Plague by Camus. I figured there'd never be a more relevant time in my life to pick up that book and there's really something, I think, in reading a story at the perfect moment, when you honest-to-god feel like you're seeing reality reflected in an author's words. When I started reading White Noise last week, it wasn't as deliberate a choice. Not in the same sense, at least. I didn't gravitate toward it with any notion that it would have interesting insights into this pandemic or the very current state of the world. By a happy accident, it did—and I don't just mean the "Airborne Toxic Event" that takes place mid-way through the book. Sure, I can see the virus in that event, but it was more than that. It was the context of this event in the technology era, with the TV constantly buzzing in the background; the confused mixture of terror and delight at being a part of something so horrific.
Every disaster made us wish for more, something bigger, grander, more sweeping.
There were a lot of lines in White Noise that really spoke to me. That's all I can ask for, at the end of the day.
