    Perhaps I am dumb. It’s been ten years I could have swore this was in the final paragraph thesis so it seems like a weird thing to joke about

      It’s commentary on the current political climate using a relatively well known situation as a reference point, not a restatement of the point of the book.

        Ooh, I wouldn’t have caught that. Thank you.

        Tap for spoiler

        Also I just checked again and have to retract what I said about the book ends. Apparently the last chapter had Jessica consoling Chauni about the poligamy situation, which is way weaker of a final note than I remembered

        But Fenrig knowing he could murk Paul and somehow being immune to Paul’s omniscience was pretty cool. I forgot I really liked that character
