The film reproduces the text, only the plot. From the plot to see the author's attitude. A lot of comments say that the novel is not popular, and I don't think it is necessary, because the novel is just a narrative tool in the film. Back to the story - memory, present, fiction (fiction); fictional fiction in which projected reality also changes reality. The heroine reads the novel with empathy and heartache. In fact, this novel is also used as a tool for her ex-husband to accuse her; the end of the movie reveals the intention of the ex-husband. The heroine holding the gun barrel named "I am a realist", Killed the perfect female partner and their daughter in the mind of the ex-husband. (It also confirms what the heroine said when the two were still in love, "You are a perfect novelist because you have created a character in your mind.")
The crack in the relationship between the two may always come from the gap between the fantasy of each other and the unpredictable and changing reality. The man's initial fantasy falls into reality (presented in the plot of the novel), while the woman's rebirth is due to the misreading of the novel text. ("for susan" at the beginning of the novel is misread as affectionate - of course affectionate, but love and hate are never contradictory) People who love others are also in love with the self who loves others (above).
