Mapping the Interior #2

I just finished Mapping The Interior this morning. I read this book in 24 - 25 page stretches every day this week. I found it was easier to read this book that way. The narrator finally vanquishes his father's ghost by shoving him out of the house. Then the mismatched ghosts of the four dogs that the father killed ripped him apart. In my opinion, the father got what he deserved. Then the focus of the book switches to the present where the narrator is in his late forties and is on the dancing circuit.

He is living a less successful version of his father's dream. Then he takes Dino back to the site of their old to try a bring back his dead son. He has learned very little from his experience. The dead should be left to rest. No one should try to bring them back. I mean the narrator is willing to sacrifice himself so his son can come back. There is no guarantee that the son will come back or that he will come back as the same person. This book moved me and left me a little disturbed.
