Yeah first time I read a grueling book. Couldn’t believe how much worse literature gore affects me compared to onscreen blood.

I’m not sure if this is just how Stephen Fry laid the story out but I dont like the idea that the gods just said: push this rock up a hill. He was a trickster cheating his way out of death again and again. I like the idea that the gods said: if you manage to push this rock all the way up the hill, you get to cheat death yet again. He’s sure he can do it as before. He rolls it up and it rolls over him but he starts over thinking this is the time he’ll get to the top. It perfectly punishes his arrogance, he doesnt consider his failure possible so he keeps going and going. The way to escape his punishment is humility.
