Dryville

My book is a psychological dark fantasy that focuses primarily on dialogue and interpersonal relationships. A significant portion of the text consists of dialogue, which is intended to build characters in a way that emulates Dostoevsky's insight. On the other hand, the local politics, interwoven with dreamlike visions and hallucinations, are full of an inner philosophy inspired by the Dune series-specifically, what Frank Herbet found most "detached" and thought-provoking. "The Doll" and its perspective on male-female relationships are also a huge inspiration for me. After each chapter, there will be a so-called "quote," a fragment of a character's thought or a description introducing the world. I currently have 230 finished pages, and including the draft, there are over 300. The plan is to finish around page 350. The finale is already written.
