Title: Maybe I just don't get it
Review: Not sure why this book has been so raved about. When I bought it, the book store clerk told me it was his "favorite book ever". That's quite an endorsement.I found it to be really uninteresting. It's almost all exposition, with little dialogue. The characters may be "memorable", but only because they're "boring". None of them have any personality (although one is well-endowed, which is nice) and is the author just *trying* to be difficult when he gives them all such similar names?This book felt like the authors parents told him lots of stories and fables when he was growing up, and he tried to cram them all into one long stream on consciousness tale. I abandoned it half-way through.
Is the review positive or negative?
