'Todd' by Etgar Keret (Fly Already, 2019)

There is a flippancy and a superficiality in this story that hides a lot of deeper, more complex feelings.
✍🏻♥️📚
What are those feelings? How do they make their way through the apparent banality of this narrative? What does all this say about masculinity?
Why might Keret have chosen to use a “postmodern gimmick” to speak to what Todd finds it so difficult to articulate?
What crucial role do writing and reading play?
