#jamie o'neil#at swim two boys#i have less than 100 pages left and this feeling of dread has started to form in the pit of my stomach#doyler just nearly drowned#and the rising hasn't started yet#but i neither know how long easter lasts nor when the easter rising actually took place#just that it did#but at least doyler didn't drown that would have been even more heartbreaking#well i say this now let's see when he actually dies#and what if he doean't die at all and i am misremembering the wiki article like i have done many times before with movies and books#and wasted times waiting and fearing something that never happened#im a mess right now#but i cant continue reading until after my clarinet lesson this afternoon#so i am probably gonna stay up late tonight reading and crying#i love this book so much#it has more political elements than i assumed and while i do recognize names like pearse parnell (thanks to joyce :D which is funny since th#e martello tower where joyce stayed is also featured in the book) and connolly i really do now know anything more specific about irish histo#*do NOT know#ry  than to be able to put all thats mentioned in the book in a context#but i also dont want to look up too much and get lost in it#i dont think the difference between the citizen army and irish volunteers matters that much#i can make notes when i reread the book next year or so#and i also expected the relationship between jim and doyler to be the main focus of the book so i am surprised by how much i enjoy#the other perspectives and plotlines like arthur macmurrough's and eveline macmurrough's
