Title: boring
Product review: Boring, rambling turgid prose. Just when you think he's going to get on with a point, on no, he wanders back to more self-reflection which really is only interesting to him. There may have been two separate books here that in his mind got mixed up as one. To me, it ended up being highly unreadable, and I am a *reader* in the good old-fashioned, chew through James Joyce sense of the word, and I read in 9 languages. The attempted mix of history and self introspection ends up it seems 99% self-absorption. I have the hardback, and at chapter 8, when I realized there were another 4 inches of the book ahead of me, I just couldn't face the thought of all those half paragraph long sentences that repeat thoughts and points made 3 pages earlier. If I lived a million years, life would still be too short to endure all that. Sorry.
