 * The Big Questions: How does this chapter fit the novel as a whole / Why is it important / What should a good reader take away from this chapter?**

This chapter reflects how the book is written. The way Uncle Zeno tells his stories is the way this book is written, the pattern of writing. This book jumps all over the place, staring in the middle, the beginning, or the end. Look at Uncle Luden, I for one expected to see him again at the end of the book, but no. This is the same as Uncle Zeno's stories.


 * Important Quotes (and commentary)**

"Uncle Zeno came to visit us. Or did he?" So much of the book is in metaphor, so it is hard to distinguish between what really happened and pure fantasy. (Rogers)
 * Moments of astonishingly good writing**
