From Surgipelago, the Beach Surgery encyclopedia
Surgipelago
Surgipelago is the community encyclopedia of A Complicated Surgery Will Take Place on the Beach Tonight — the novel by C. W. Smith and the sprawling, contradictory body of adaptations it has given rise to: manga, anime, films, games, operas, theses, LARPs and more. Every adaptation is an attempt to finish the novel’s unfinishable core and to resolve the glitch; none of them agree. This archive currently documents 2657 articles and is still growing.
It is night. The beach is to your left.
