i tracked down the reddit post because i wanted to see what the hell this guy was annotating like 30 pages in
i do NOT know french but i applaud this guy who seems to be attempting to decode the book as if the whole thing were cryptography
#he is absolutely trying to figure out the dimensions of the house#unhinged behavior but also somehow a completely valid way to read this shitass book
