Title: Probably the Worst Book Ever Written!
Review: Maybe something gets lost in the translation. Fans of modernism may rejoice, but the average reader may not like Cela's distinctive style. The book succeeds only in disgusting its readers. I read this in an International Novel course and can honestly say, it was the least favorite book among the majority of students. The guys seemed to like it, but that could be because of the explicit sex or the perverse sense of humor. Many female readers felt that Cela was being extremely negative towards the female characters in the book. (The major female characters include a prostitute and a mentally unstable woman). Don't waste your time on this one.
