More and more, I have to read about books and movies I read/watched to find out what they were really about
Most recently, the first episode of Season 5 of "Black Mirror," "Striking Vipers."
Only when I read the plot summary in Wikipedia did I understand what just happened.
A couple weeks ago, it was Susan Choi's superb new novel, "Trust Exercise."
Again, I had to find a review to understand what happened.
But — in both cases, I enjoyed what I saw and read, regardless of the fact that I didn't "get" it.
I'm not one to try to understand movies or books when I get confused: I just keep on keeping on.
I'm confounded by people who seem to understand all the twists and turns of a plot as they unfold.
